Dialog Error Feedback
CADFEKO provides error feedback for dialogs by showing a soft message bubble when validation fails on a dialog.

The Feko Getting Started Guide contains step-by-step instructions on how to get started with Feko.
The example is intended for users with no or little experience with CADFEKO. It makes use of a completed rectangular horn model to familiarise yourself with model creation in CADFEKO and viewing the simulated results in POSTFEKO.
This example shows a completed rectangular horn model to familiarise yourself with the Feko components and workflow. The main elements and terminology in the CADFEKO and POSTFEKO graphical user interface are discussed.
Before starting this example, check if the topics discussed in this example are relevant to the intended application and experience level.
Before starting this example, ensure that the system satisfies the minimum requirements.

Use CADFEKO to configure a solver-ready input file for Solver simulations.
There are several options available to launch CADFEKO in Windows.
There are several options available to launch CADFEKO in Linux.
The Feko start page is displayed when starting a new instance (no models are loaded) of CADFEKO, EDITFEKO or POSTFEKO.

The ribbon is a command bar that groups similar actions in a series of tabs.
The Construction tab contains the geometry and mesh representation of the current model in a tree structure. It also lists ports and the optimisation configuration.
The Configuration tab contains the global and configuration-specific model settings and requests of the current model in tree form.
The Notification centre performs computational electromagnetic model (CEM) validation and shows the status of the model and notifications.

CADFEKO provides default keyboard shortcuts. To better fit your workflow and work style, you can reassign keyboard shortcuts to different commands.
CADFEKO provides default commands for all the mouse buttons. To better fit your workflow and work style, you can reassign mouse buttons to different commands.
Use POSTFEKO to validate meshed geometry and analyse and post-process results.
The example is intended for users with no or little experience with CADFEKO. This example is not an example intended for simulation, but rather to familiarise yourself with model creation in CADFEKO.
The example considers a left-handed circular polarised GPS patch antenna on a finite substrate.
The example considers the antenna placement of a GPS patch antenna on a quadcopter.
The example considers the coupling between a typical monopole antenna and a loaded transmission line above a ground plane.
The example considers the transmission and reflection coefficients of a waveguide power divider.
The example considers the optimisation of the gain of a bent dipole in front of a plate.
The Feko Example Guide contains a collection of examples that teaches you Feko concepts and essentials.
Feko is a comprehensive electromagnetic solver with multiple solution methods that is used for electromagnetic field analyses involving 3D objects of arbitrary shapes.
CADFEKO is used to create and mesh the geometry or model mesh, specify the solution settings and calculation requests in a graphical environment.
POSTFEKO, the Feko post processor, is used to display the model (configuration and mesh), results on graphs and 3D views.
EDITFEKO is used to construct advanced models (both the geometry and solution requirements) using a high-level scripting language which includes loops and conditional statements.
One of the key features in Feko is that it includes a broad set of unique and hybridised solution methods. Effective use of Feko features requires an understanding of the available methods.
Feko offers state-of-the-art optimisation engines based on generic algorithm (GA) and other methods, which can be used to automatically optimise the design and determine the optimum solution.
The Feko utilities consist of PREFEKO, OPTFEKO, ADAPTFEKO, the Launcher utility, Updater and the crash reporter.
Feko writes all the results to an ASCII output file .out as well as a binary output file .bof for usage by POSTFEKO. Use the .out file to obtain additional information about the solution.
A large collection of application macros are available for CADFEKO and POSTFEKO.
CADFEKO and POSTFEKO have a powerful, fast, lightweight scripting language integrated into the application allowing you to create models, get hold of simulation results and model configuration information as well as manipulation of data and automate repetitive tasks.
Reference information is provided in the appendix.
