Abstract :
We have used the MoM numerical technique to compute electromagnetic far-field patterns radiated from an antenna located on an aircraft complex structure; the results of our simulation were compared to the direct measurements done with a scale model of the antenna fitted on the scaled model aircraft in a large test compact-range, to assess the simulation accuracy and the computational weight.
