Abstract :
A software package for modeling the radiation properties of the (dielectric filled), flanged, waveguide ends is presented. It combines an efficient and accurate computational engine and a user-friendly graphic interface. Extended graphic post-processing options for visualizing the electromagnetic phenomena in both the far-field and the near-field regions are provided. The package is mainly intended for being employed as an educational tool.
