PCAAD 7.0 is the newest version of the very popular general purpose antenna analysis and design software.
PCAAD 7.0 is a Windows-compatible antenna analysis, modeling, and design software package. It contains more than 50 routines treating wire antennas, aperture antennas, microstrip antennas, arrays, transmission lines and waveguides, and more. These routines are integrated into a menu-driven, user-friendly system allowing you to quickly evaluate the performance of a wide variety of antenna types. PCAAD 7.0 includes a 120-page printed user manual which describes the use of the software, provides examples for each of the routines, and lists technical references.
Some of the new features in
