Known subclasses:

Name	Type	Description
ConstantGainAntenna	compound module	This antenna model describes an antenna that has an antenna gain indepent of the transmission or reception direction.
CosineAntenna	compound module	This module represents the cosine antenna model found in
DipoleAntenna	compound module	This antenna model describes the well-known dipole antenna or doublet. It consists of two identical conductive elements, which are bilaterally symmetrical.
InterpolatingAntenna	compound module	This antenna model computes the antenna gain from the direction of the signal using linear interpolation for all 3 euler angles independently of each other. The gain parameters contain a sequence of angle [degree] and gain [dB] pairs. The first pair must be at 0 [degree].
IsotropicAntenna	compound module	This antenna model describes the theoretical point source which radiates the same intensity of radiation in all directions.
ParabolicAntenna	compound module	This model is based on a parabolic approximation of the main lobe radiation pattern. A similar model appears in

Parameters:
