INTRODUCTION
In this brief tutorial, we use IE3D to simulate a 2.4 GHz microstrip-fed, patch antenna.
The antenna is fabricated on a 60 mil RO4003 substrate from Rogers-Corp with the
dielectric constant of 3.4 and loss tangent of 0.002. In this tutorial we are not concerned
about the design of this antenna and we will focus our attention on using IE3D to
simulate the structure and obtain its parameters. The tutorial is organized in a number of
steps, which must be followed in sequence to obtain best results.
