6.2     Scaling

The 3D radiation pattern can be scaled with the following Gain References: directive gain, power gain, absolute_1port gain, absolute gain and Fields at 1m, as described in Antenna Gain.

 

 

Additionally, the 3D Radiation Pattern window allows the following scaling:

Linear scale can be set using button_lin button in Radiation tab and Scale->Linear command from main menu or context menu.

Decibel scale can be set using button_db button in Radiation tab and Scale->Decibel command from main menu or context menu. Basically, values Vlog in the decibel scale are calculated from values Vlin in the linear scale as: Vlog=20 log(Vlin/L), where L=1 in the units of Vlin. Certain quantities cannot be converted to decibel scale.

 

The button_auto button in Radiation tab and Scale->Auto Scale command from main menu or context menu change the scale to automatic.

The button_set button in Radiation tab and Scale->Set Scale… command from main menu or context menu invoke Set Scale dialogue for setting scales parameters.
