Feko is used globally across multiple industries including aerospace, defense, automotive, communications and consumer electronics to reduce the time-to-market. Feko customers achieve improved connectivity and functionality through robust simulation driven product design and deployment strategies.
Altair FEKO 2024.0 Linux64 Tested Picture
Feko addresses the broadest set of high-frequency electromagnetic simulation applications allowing teams to optimize wireless connectivity, including 5G, ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and perform radar cross section (RCS) and scattering analysis. From antenna simulation and placement, radio coverage, network planning, and spectrum management, to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC/EMI), radome modeling, bio-electromagnetics and RF devices, Feko combines with other Altair tools to optimize system performance through machine learning and reduce modeling time for complex systems.
Antenna Design
Feko is used to design a very wide range of antenna types, including wire antennas, microstrip, horn, aperture, lenses, reflector and conformal antennas. Also, phased arrays and with a dedicated and unique solution for windscreen antennas.
Antenna Placement and Coupling
Feko is the leading tool for understanding and optimizing antenna placement and coupling. Installed antenna performance is heavily dependent on how and where antennas are integrated. In other tools an antenna mounted on an electrically large structure can be especially challenging to simulate.
Radio Coverage and Planning
Feko simulates wireless coverage and enables radio network planning for buildings, campuses, cities, or entire nations with Altair® WinProp™ and Altair WRAP modeling for the air interfaces of cellular (with C-V2X and 5G), broadcast, aeronautical, satellite, and wireless communications, plus radar coverage, radio links, and point-to-multipoint.
Spectrum Management
Feko enables the management, planning, and distribution of valuable radio spectrum assets to allow maximum utilization. The WRAP tools for technical analysis of coverage, interference and optimization of the spectrum utilization ensure spectrum regulators can efficiently manage the wide variety and ever-increasing demands of wireless systems.
Radio Frequency Interference
From interferences between multiple transmitters and receivers in a site to broadcasting stations and aeronautical equipment, or wireless networks, Feko WRAP capabilities enable customers to anticipate, analyze, and mitigate radio frequency (RF) interference effects including intermodulation, harmonics, antenna coupling, transmitter spectrum, receiver selectivity, and blocking.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Feko is a strong solution for EMC/EMI applications, and is extensively used for immunity and emissions analysis involving cables, antennas, and other devices. It can simulate shielding effectiveness, electromagnetic pulses, lightning effects, high-intensity radiated fields (HIRF), in addition to reverberation and anechoic chambers.
