Design of Yagi Uda Antenna Using HFSS Software.

The document describes the design of a Yagi-Uda antenna using ANSYS HFSS software. It first provides background on Yagi-Uda antennas, which are directional antennas made of parallel half-wave dipole elements. It then outlines the steps to design the antenna in HFSS, which involves drawing cylinders of varying sizes and parameters to represent the reflector, driven element, and multiple director elements and simulating the antenna design.

Design of Yagi Uda Antenna Using HFSS


Software.
February 15, 2018

EXPERIMENT NO: 03

AIM: Design of Yagi Uda Antenna Using HFSS Software.

SOFTWARE USED: ANSYS HFSS 15.0.3

THEORY:

A Yagi–Uda antenna, commonly known as a Yagi antenna, is a directional antenna consisting


of multiple parallel elements in a line, usually half-wave dipoles made of metal rods. Yagi–Uda
antennas consist of a single  driven element  connected to the  transmitter  or  receiver  with
a  transmission line, and additional "parasitic elements" which are not connected to the
transmitter or receiver: a so-called reflector and one or more directors. 

It was invented in 1926 by  Shintaro Uda  of  Tohoku Imperial University,  Japan, and (with a
lesser role played by his colleague)  Hidetsugu Yagi. The reflector element is slightly longer
than the driven dipole, whereas the directors are a little shorter.  This design achieves a very
substantial increase in the antenna's directionality and gain compared to a simple dipole.

Also called a "beam antenna", or "parasitic array", the Yagi is very widely used as a high-gain
antenna on the HF, VHF and UHFbands.

PROCEDURE:
1.       Open the HFSS software window.
2.      Go to file and create new.
3.      Press “Insert HFSS design” option in upper left side of window.

4.      Draw cylinder of random dimension in y-axis and set the following parameters.
1.      Go to create cylinder under antenna and set the following parameters.

It looks like this:


1.      Similarly create another cylinder for antenna 1 with following parameters value.

1.      Create cylinder of antenna 1 specification:

1.      Create cylinder of antenna 2 specification:


1.      Create cylinder of antenna 3 specification:

1.      Create cylinder of antenna 4 specification:

1.      Create cylinder of antenna 5 specification:
