I need help for this.

I made two simulation, using one pin and grond, and one +pin and one - pin
Result is more different.
What is the right method ?
Using one pole and Grond, i see little activity on bottom pole, on momentum Visualization, animation.

P1 P2 are +/- pole
sim2 is P1 + GND
sim2_2 is P1+ P2-

Maybe I understood.
But I don't understand the program.
Can you help me to found error ?

First project is from gerber.
I made new one, step by step, from youtube tutorial.
But some result is positive.

dB(S(1,1)) is dB(S11) and it is antenna gain ?
Same to 8DBI attached ?

S(1,1) is NOT Antenna Gain. It's just related to Input Impedance. In order to obtain Antenna Gain you have to simulate your antenna within 3D simulator and obtain Radiation Patterns( for different angles and Horizontal-Vertical both) . HFSS is an appropriate tool for this purpose. Sonnet and ADS Momentum can also be used.
You will find- if you do a set-up correctly- an Antenna Gain compare to Omnidirectional Antenna.

I only need to be tune antenna.
It is not important to know gain.

Can please donload my project for check where is error ?
It is right, use Pin & GND, or Pin+ & Pin- for checkh dipole ?

This test for 1Ghz 1/4wave and dipole.
For understand ADS, that I do not understand

This seeems right ?
-2 at 455MHZ ?
And how to show impedance on OHM ?

As stated above, dB(S11) > 0 is physically implausible and indicates an incorrect simulation setup.

I do not know how to do.

Adding 4 SPires The Frequency Has Come Down
Too now.
But I don't understand why you all say that the graph is wrong.
I don't know nuthing of S and DB, only i need PCB 433Mhz antenna.

Create an Archive file from your project. Don't zip the whole directory, just create related archive file and post it here.

Thank you

If you mean WorkSpace Archive Command.
I compressed the file 5.7zads on 5.zip

This today monopole from gerber.

And this result

Ignore monopole.
This dipole, seems right for 433Mhz

There are many mistakes..
-Merge all objects which are on the same layer and simplify the layout.
-You drove P1 on BOT layer but the GND was Implicit. It must be TOP layer. See Port dialog in project file.
-Tan Delta of FR4 is low, increase to 0.04.
-This antenna does not work @ 433 MHz, Impedance is best @381MHz

Very good. Out of curiosity, do you understand how the previous simulations achieved positive dB(S11)?
Click to expand...
He had defined a Port on Bottom layer and GND Reference of this Port was Implicit Momentum GND Layer.
But There was also Top layer and this Port had to be referenced to Top Layer.
So, there will be a generator between Top and Bottom layer and the antenna will be correctly driven.

Thank You Very Much.

In front of the PCB I have a 5mm acrylic panel, and behind the concrete wall.
Could the program consider them?

Where do I find Delta setup?

I am trying to replicate your work, and finally, only now, I get 381MHz

-Merge all objects which are on the same layer and simplify the layout.
Handmade editing ?
Removing trash orphan track ?

-Tan Delta of FR4 is low, increase to 0.04.
I can't find this parameter in any ADS setup

How can I add 5mm acrylic on one side and wall on the other side ?

You need to open the EM substrate in the substrate editor, then select the FR4 layer, then change material definition.

To add acrylic and wall (concrete?) material you need to add these materials as layers in the EM substrate.

Getting proper results from EM simulation requires a skilled user. If you are new to ADS and have no time to attend the Momentum training, have a look at the tutorial videos by Anurag Bhargava:

Not sure if I understand your setup, but I changed your substrate to 5mm acrylic (PMMA) on one side and an infinite layer of concrete on the other side.

Resonance is shifted down to ~230 MHz then, the modified ADS model is attached. To move resonance back to 433 MHz, reduce dipole length. Try 53% of the original size.

Good luck!

thank you

About graph.
I have:
-3.5 for air db(S11)
-4.5 for acrilyc
-20 for acrilic + concrete

What does it mean ?
How do I real the impedance in Ohm and the Ros ?

Where can I find better delta parameters for cement (concrete) and acrylic at 433MHz ?
