Enter height of the box for “Row offset”. Enter the width of the box for (Figure 11) “Column offset”. Press to create the array. “OK” Draw a 50 mm radius in the center of the array. (Figure 12) Fig.11 Fig.12 Print out the pattern on a transparency. Open the main menu, and click to open the printer dialog box. “Print” Choose the printer as and set equals as 1 unit 1mm “HP Deskjet 930C/932C/935C”, shown in Figure 13. Click the and then click in the dialog box. “Properties” button, ‘Custom Properties” Choose Media as Premium Inkjet as “HP Transparency Film”, Quality Settings as as shown in Figure 14. “Best”, Color “Black & White” Click to restore when finish setting. “OK” Click to print out the pattern in a transparency film. “OK” Note: the transparency must be place with the paper strip facing up and the edge with the paper strip going into the printer first. Fig.13 Fig.14 Example 2: Design an antenna pattern by using AutoCAD 2012. This example will be based off tracing an image if you wish to make your antenna a more complex design. It follows the same requirements as the previous example. The following example is to design an antenna pattern for WiFi (2.4 GHz) using a quarter wavelength. After calculation, the total length of the antenna pattern should be 31.25 mm. Design specification: Antenna length should be 31.25 mm long Antenna width shall be 0.5 mm or wider Antenna line shall not intersect any line from beginning to end.
