get_antenna_data#

Hfss.get_antenna_data(frequencies=None, setup=None, sphere=None, variations=None, overwrite=True, link_to_hfss=True, export_touchstone=True, set_phase_center_per_port=True)[source]#

Export the antenna parameters to Far Field Data (FFD) files and return an instance of the FfdSolutionDataExporter object.

For phased array cases, only one phased array is calculated.

Parameters:

frequenciesfloat, list, optional: Frequency value or list of frequencies to compute far field data. The default is None, in which case all available frequencies are computed.
setupstr, optional: Name of the setup to use. The default is None, in which case nominal_adaptive is used.
spherestr, optional: Infinite sphere to use. The default is None, in which case an existing sphere is used or a new one is created.
variationsdict, optional: Variation dictionary. The default is None, in which case the nominal variation is exported.
overwritebool, optional: Whether to overwrite FFD files. The default is True.
link_to_hfssbool, optional: Whether to return an instance of the ansys.aedt.core.generic.farfield_explorerf.FfdSolutionDataExporter class, which requires a connection to an instance of the Hfss class. The default is `` True``. If False, returns an instance of ansys.aedt.core.generic.farfield_explorer.FfdSolutionData class, which is independent of the running HFSS instance.
export_touchstonebool, optional: Whether to export touchstone file. The default is False.
set_phase_center_per_portbool, optional: Set phase center per port location. The default is True.

Returns:

ansys.aedt.core.visualization.advanced.farfield_visualization.FfdSolutionDataExporter: SolutionData object.

Examples

The method get_antenna_data() is used to export the farfield of each element of the design.

Open a design and create the objects.

>>> from ansys.aedt.core import Hfss
>>> hfss = Hfss()
>>> ffdata = hfss.get_antenna_data()
>>> ffdata.farfield_data.plot_cut(primary_sweep="theta",theta=0,is_polar=False)
