RectangularPatchEdge#

class ansys.aedt.toolkits.antenna.backend.antenna_models.patch.RectangularPatchEdge(*args, **kwargs)[source]#

Manages a rectangular patch edge antenna.

This class is accessible through the Hfss object [1].

Parameters:

frequencyfloat, optional: Center frequency. The default is 10.0.
frequency_unitstr, optional: Frequency units. The default is "GHz".
materialstr, optional: Substrate material. If the material is not defined, a new material, parametrized, is created. The default is "FR4_epoxy".
outer_boundarystr, optional: Boundary type to use. The default is None. Options are "FEBI", "PML", "Radiation", and None.
length_unitstr, optional: Length units. The default is "mm".
substrate_heightfloat, optional: Substrate height. The default is 1.575.
parametrizedbool, optional: Whether to create a parametrized antenna. The default is True.

Returns:

aedt.toolkits.antenna.RectangularPatchEdge: Patch antenna object.

Examples

>>> from ansys.aedt.toolkits.antenna.backend.antenna_models.patch import RectangularPatchEdge
>>> import ansys.aedt.core
>>> app = ansys.aedt.core.Hfss()
>>> oantenna1 = RectangularPatchEdge(app)
>>> oantenna1.frequency = 12.0
>>> oantenna1.model_hfss()
>>> oantenna1.setup_hfss()
>>> app.release_desktop(False, False)
