Abstract :
A graphical user interface (GUI) using the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) framework is designed to serve as an educational tool to design and analyze various space-fed antenna arrays while providing a learning platform for antenna engineering. The interface can be used by anyone regardless of background in electromagnetics and antenna theory and provides a step-by-step walkthrough with documented parameters for the user to design and analyze a space-fed array. This GUI features three main phases: element design phase, system design phase, and analysis phase.
