MODULE(S): [[EM.Terrano]]
 
FUNCTION: Creates a parameterized monostatic radar scene with a collocated point transmitter and receiver and a point scatterer at a certain range
 
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: The user can determine the locations of both the radar (transmitter and receiver) and the target. The user can also import a radiation pattern for the radar antenna and rotate the antenna arbitrarily. By default, a 20dB Y-polarized pyramidal horn antenna pointing along the X-axis is assumed. The target is assumed to be a PEC sphere of 1m radius. The user can change the attributes of the target scatterer group from within the wizard including its material composition, or alternatively import either polarimetric scattering matrix or RCS data.

MODULE(S): [[EM.Tempo]], [[EM.Picasso]]
 
FUNCTION: Creates the parameterized geometry of a microstrip-fed rectangular patch antenna in the project workspace
 
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: The wizard asks you whether you want a microstrip-fed patch antenna with a recessed feed or one with a direct microstrip line junction. In [[EM.Tempo]], the feed line is excited by a microstrip port. In [[EM.Picasso]], the feed line has a scattering wave port. The total dimensions of the square patch are set equal to 0.5 times the effective dielectric wavelength, which can be changed.

MODULE(S): [[EM.Terrano]]
 
FUNCTION: Creates a mobile path of transmitters or receivers in the project workspace
 
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates either a set of transmitters or a set of receivers along a specified path. The path can be specified in one of three different ways: (a) using an existing "virtual" nodal curve, i.e. a polyline or a NURBS curve, whose nodes define the base locations, (b) using an existing "virtual" line object by specifying the number of base location points, and (c) using an existing spatial Cartesian data file, which specifies the coordinates of the base location points. The Mobile Path Wizard provides a list of all the nodal curves or line objects that have been defined as virtual objects in the project workspace.
 
 
PYTHON COMMAND(S):
 
emag_mobile_path_nodal(label,nodal_curve,TxRx=0)

NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: In [[EM.Tempo]], the patch antenna is fed by a lumped source on a short vertical PEC line. In [[EM.Picasso]], the patch antenna is fed by a probe source on a short vertical PEC via. In both modules, the dimensions of the square patch are set equal to 0.47 times the effective dielectric wavelength, which can be changed.

FUNCTION: Creates a set of randomly located and randomly oriented buildings with random dimensions and impenetrable walls in the project workspace
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates a realistic urban propagation scene with randomly located buildings in a square area of specified size. It can be used in two different ways. In the fully random mode, all the generated buildings are assigned and always retain random parameter values. Every time you open the Variables Dialog or open the same project, all the random variables get updated values. In the semi-random mode, the buildings are initially generated based on random parameter values, but these value are then fixed and locked for good. By default, a half-wave vertical dipole transmitter is placed at the center of the scene and a grid of isotropic receivers cover the entire propagation scene.

ICON: [[File:us_patch_iconus2p icon.png]]
MENU: '''Tools &rarr; Antenna Transmission Line Wizards &rarr; MicrostripTwo-Fed Patch AntennaPort Stripline'''
MODULE(S): [[EM.Tempo]], [[EM.Picasso]]
FUNCTION: Creates the parameterized geometry of a microstriptwo-fed rectangular patch antenna port stripline segment of a specified characteristic impedance on a conductor-backed single-layer dielectric substrate in the project workspace
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: The wizard asks you whether you want a microstrip-fed patch antenna with a recessed feed or one with a direct microstrip line junction. In [[EM.Tempo]], the feed line is excited by a microstrip port. In [[EM.Picasso]], two ports are placed at the feed line has a scattering wave porttwo edges of the substrate. The total dimensions width of the square patch are set equal to 0Stripline is determined based on the specified characteristic impedance.5 times the effective dielectric wavelength, which can It may be changedreplaced by a numeric value instead.
