Antenna design, Numerical modelling and optimisation

Performing tests and measurements can be very time consuming and expensive, especially in a development environment where prototypes will have to be made many times over until EMC requirements are met. Therefore modelling is becoming an increasingly attractive option.

Work in our group is concentrated in a few areas but recently there has been a particular interest in aerospace applications, and material properties. Also we use numerical modelling to design antennas for a range of applications.‌ 

 

The Bilog family of antennas, invented at York, is widely used in EMC labs around the world.
