NAME
optimise - output data file formats
DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the output formats of the files
created by the Yagi-Uda project's optimise program. The files
are ASCII file, so can be analysed with any graph plotting
program. Its input file is the same format as required by
yagi and is created input or first. This is described in
input(5). Here we only describe the output data file format.
The .bes output file, which is the same format as the input
file is obviosly described by input(5).
Example of a .up file.
The .up file list the improvements made by optimise to an
antenna design. Starting from the original design, the file
is appended each time a new better design is found. Here is
an example, where the final line is the performance of the
4ele beam with the .dat file shown earlier.
1 7.57dBi, 16.93dB F/B, Z=(31.77-56.34j) Ohms, SWR=3.95, SL=16.95 dB
84 7.58dBi, 16.93dB F/B, Z=(31.78-56.32j) Ohms, SWR=3.95, SL=16.95 dB
623 7.58dBi, 16.93dB F/B, Z=(31.78-56.28j) Ohms, SWR=3.95, SL=16.95 dB
89345 9.74dBi, 103.06dB F/B, Z=(37.55 +1.61j) Ohms, SWR=1.33, SL=17.78 dB
What is what in the .up
The first column is an integer specifying the iteration. The
other columns, goinf from left to right are gain(dBi), FB,
input impedance, SWR and level of the most significant
sidelobe, in dB down on the peak gain.
