Antenna simulation uses electromagnetic modeling software to predict how an antenna design will perform before it's physically built. It reveals radiation patterns, gain, impedance, and polarization behavior, allowing engineers to catch design flaws early, reduce prototyping costs, and accelerate development timelines for defense, aerospace, and satellite applications.
