Rediadion Pattern Plotter


Antenna pattern:

The radiation pattern or antenna pattern is the graphical representation of the radiation properties of the antenna as a function of space. That is, the antenna’s pattern describes how the antenna radiates energy out into space (or how it receives energy). It is important to state that an antenna radiates energy in all directions, at least to some extent, so the antenna pattern is actually three-dimensional. It is common, however, to describe this 3D pattern with two planar patterns, called the principal plane patterns. These principal plane patterns can be obtained by making two slices through the 3D pattern through the maximum value of the pattern or by direct measurement. It is these principal plane patterns that are commonly referred to as the antenna patterns.




Download the manual polar plot printable pdf version from the following link.



Download the automatic polar plot tool from the following link. This is a cool excel spreadsheet application to plot radiation pattern automatically!! Just put the obtained result and details in the proper field. You can also take printout according to your need.

The following file contains two tools within a file. First can be used as a polar plot for any antenna and second one is for horn antenna.
