  • Abstract
    A rapid mutual coupling analysis tool for arbitrary antennas was developed using UTD. The arbitrary antenna is represented by the far field radiation pattern obtained via commercially available computational EM tools or measurements. The tool accounts for the primary coupling path including surface to surface, surface to free space, free space to free space and surface to free space to surface.
