Webinar Overview

Join XFdtd's product team for a discussion about group delay for UWB antennas. Remcom's application engineering team developed a method for analyzing group delay for a single-port antenna and is looking for market feedback.

In a laboratory setting, the group delay between two antennas is measured directly using a VNA. Typically, two identical antennas are separated by a minimum of the far-field distance and aligned such that the transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) have both the same polarizations and look directions. The resulting group delay is a function of the TX antenna, the RX antenna, and the separation distance. In order to determine the group delay associated with a single antenna - either TX or RX - some analysis of the measured group delay must be performed.  

In this webinar, we'll discuss how group delay is determined directly from a single-port simulation. You will have an opportunity to provide feedback after the session.

Key Takeaways:

  • Learn about the latest developments for computing group delay for an antenna.
  • Impact XFdtd’s feature development by providing input on your needs.
