Automated Antenna Calculation, Design and Tuning Tool for HFSS

In this paper, we present an open-source graphical tool for automating the calculation, design, simulation, and tuning of several common antenna types in Ansys HFSS. This tool is designed to increase the user-friendliness of scripting in Ansys HFSS for the batch creation of multiple projects and automatic optimization and design tuning via rules-based and machine learning techniques. Features and initial results for tuning are discussed.
