Hello,

I'm new to HFSS and im trying to design a helical antenna (I also tried using the design kit but i prefer doing it by myself).

anyway the antenna params are:

frequency - around 400 MHz
radius - I calculated it to be around 9.5 cm
pitch angle - 13 deg
spacing (s) - 13.8 cm

I still haven't decided which gain I need so i use N=10

and for the wire diameter I also didn't decide yet (help would be appreciated), for now i chose it to be d=0.01 lambda (according to Kraus)

anyway i'm having a bit trouble designing the helix, if anyone has good simulation/guide/video that explains how to do it I would really be thankful.
