Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate calculated antenna patterns of dipoles located on a HMMWV vehicle using FEKO. First a simple wire antenna design is explained. Two dipoles are designed to operate at 400 and 1000 MHz. Then the FEKO code is used to determine the vehicle and antenna-antenna interactions using moment methods.
