Antenna Array in Advanced Design Systems

[butlermatrix]

Hello,

Is is possible to make a phased array system in ADS(i.e. I can phase it to get beam steering)?
If so how can I control the amplitude and phase of the current I am supplying in the feed lines?

Thanks

For simple cases, you can just define the different port amplitude & phase values in the 3D pattern display.

If you need more than this, have a look at the ADS add-on "circuit excitation". This allows you to drive the different ports with amplitude & phase controlled by the schematic simulation.

Could you please tell me where I need to change the port amplitude and phase?

I have tried a lot but didnot come across anything as such. I am attaching a few screenshots.

You need to go to the "Solution Setup" tab at the bottom of the page:

Hello,

Thanks for the help. I had a query. How do I get to know about the type of polarization from these plots? I am attaching the screenshots.
