Commslink

Calculates the power transfer of a line-of-site communication link.

The program uses the Friis Transmission Formula to calculate the power received at the output terminal of the receiving antenna.

CommsLink is included in "MakingWaves".

MakingWaves

MakingWaves is a collection of programs that antenna engineers may find useful in estimating the performance of a variety of antenna types. Programs for designing rectangular microstrip patch antennas and a number of wire antennas are also included.

MakingWaves comprises the following:

• A calculator for determining the power transfer of a line-of-site communication system.
• The radar range equation to determine the received power reflected from an object.
• Radar cross-section calculator for a variety of shapes.
• Aperture antenna beamwidth and peak sidelobe level estimator for various amplitude distributions.
• Phased array element spacing and differential phase shift for a given frequency and scan angle.
• The beamwidth and directivity of a linear array.
• The beamwidth and directivity of a rectangular planar array.
• Microstrip patch antenna design program.
• Wire antenna design and performance predictor for the following wire antennas:
  • Helix
  • Half-wave dipole
  • Folded dipole
• Reflectometer calculator.
• Mismatch error limits calculator
