| â | ===OBJECTIVE:===
| + | [[FDTD Module|FDTD MODULE]] |
| Â | | Â | |
| â | To construct a centerâfed resonant dipole antenna in EM.Cubeâs [[FDTD Module]], analyze it and visualize its near
| + | [[FDTDLesson1]] |
| â | and far field characteristics.
| + | |
| Â | | Â | |
| â | ===YOU WILL LEARN:===
| + | [[FDTDLesson2]] |
| Â | | Â | |
| â | A simple halfâwave dipole antenna in free space will be analyzed in the first tutorial. This tutorial will guide
| + | [[FDTDLesson3]] |
| â | you through all necessary steps required to set up and perform a basic FDTD simulation and visualize and
| + | |
| â | graph the simulation results.
| + | |
| Â | | Â | |
| â | ===We strongly recommend that you read through the first few tutorials and study them carefully before setting up your own projects.===

| â | ==1.1 Getting Started==
| + | [[FDTDLesson4OLD]] |
| Â | | Â | |
| â | Open the EM.Cube application. Click Start, select All Programs, and then the EMAG program group. Select
| + | [[FDTDLesson5]] |
| â | EM.CUBE to start the program. By default, EM.Cube opens up a blank project with the name âUntitledProj1â in
| + | |
| â | its [[CubeCAD]] Module.

| â | You can start drawing objects and build up your physical structure right away. Or you can initiate a new
| Â |
| â | project by selecting the New button of the System Toolbar (or using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+N, or via
| Â |
| â | the menu File ô New Projectâ¦). This opens up the New Project Dialog, where you can enter a title for your
| Â |
| â | new project and set its path. You can use the Windows Explorer to go to the desired folder where you want to
| Â |
| â | place your new project folder. For this project, use the title âFDTDLesson1â. From the same dialog, you can
| Â |
| â | also set the projectâs Length Units, Frequency Units, Center Frequency and Bandwidth. For this tutorial lesson,
| Â |
| â | set the length and frequency units of the project to Millimeters and Gigahertz, respectively, and set both the
| Â |
| â | center frequency and bandwidth to 1GHz. Then, click the Create button of the dialog to accept the settings. A
| Â |
| â | new project folder with your given name is immediately created at your specified path.
| Â |
| Â | | Â | |
| â | EM.Cubeâs [[CubeCAD]] Module lets you construct 3D geometries, or import them via external model files
| + | Â |
| â | such as *.stp, *igs, or *.stl. Once these geometries have been modified or completed, they can be moved to
| + | [[PMOMLesson1]] |
| â | other modules within EM.Cube for further simulation. On the other hand, all modules of EM.Cube offer full
| + | Â |
| â | CAD operations by themselves. Therefore, you can build a new project from the ground up in any of EM.Cubeâs
| + | [[PMOMLesson2]] |
| â | computational modules.
