Abstract

The use of open source software opens new and interesting opportunities in computational electromagnetics for scientific research and industrial production. One of the possible applications, which usually requires a large set of numerical tests, is related to antenna design. Despite the well-known advantages offered by open source software, it is not easy to obtain results with a high level of confidence, and to integrate open source modules in the production workflow. In this paper, a discussion about open source programs for antenna design is carried out. Furthermore, some results are presented and discussed also in comparison with the results obtained by means of commercial software.
