Abstract

This paper shows, for a real-life airborne platform with multiple communication antennas, how simulation is used to evaluate possible electromagnetic interference problems. The simulations employ Altair's FEKO software with both its Method of Moments (MOM) and Multilevel Fast Multipole Method (MFLMM) solvers to validate the antenna models and their chosen location on a model airship. This approach ensures better project technical choices allowing cost reduction with manufacturing real prototypes and anechoic chamber tests.
