Example of an imported Dodecahedron array with 6 elements

Another useful application for the array synthesis tool is the distribution matrix (DM) import functionality. It allows users to specify customized array layouts using tab separated value (tsv) files. Antenna Magus reads each element's spacing (x,y,z), amplitude and phase and calculates the synthesized array using the specified element pattern. Note that element patters can be imported from CST Studio Suite or using a general source.
