ANTENNA DESIGN USING PERSONAL COMPUTERS

Collection of simple antenna calculation in GW-BASIC:

• APERTURE.BAS: This program calculates aperture antenna characteristics for
  • Line source;
  • Rectangular aperture;
  • Circular aperture
• ARRAY.BAS: Pattern of a uniform linear isotropic array
• CHEBY.BAS: This program computes the chebyshev coefficients for an n-element linear array, with a specified sidelobe level.
• DIPOLE.BAS: This program does a moment method solution for a wire dipole in free-space.
• DIRECT.BAS: Directivity calculation for an arbitrary antenna pattern
• FLDDIPOL.BAS: This program does a moment method solution for a folded dipole antenna.
• FRIIS.BAS: This program computes the FRIIS power transmission formula.
• HORN.BAS: Rectangular horn antenna gain and patterns.
• LINE.BAS: Radiation integral and patterns for a traveling wave line source.
• MSANT.BAS: Analysis program for microstrip antennas
• SWGDS.BAS: This program computes the surface wave propagation constants of a grounded dielectric slab.
• WOODLAW.BAS: Woodward-lawson array synthesis

Hi @kiavash-at-home, thanks - it seems the file or link has been removed in the latest edit, could you point me to it?

[robhagemans]

AH, I found them in the earlier version in my inbox - nevermind, thanks! Do you perhaps have any description of the origin for these? I found files of the same names here: http://cd.textfiles.com/hamradio/ant/antenna/ so I can add that link in the description.

Hi.I think they were on Simtel at some point. I think you found the correct link with more completed files that I didn't have in my list so my description won't have them included. If you want I can add those into the list as well?
