As antenna design research progresses into more advanced techniques, recurrent manual editing of CAD models is one of the last, laborious obstacles for fully automated optimization. In this article we present AntennaCAT (Antenna Calculation and Autotuning Tool), which is designed to lower the barrier to entry for advanced antenna design and optimization while increasing the repeatability of the experimental process. AntennaCAT is open source software that automates the design, simulation, and optimization processes. It is compatible with multiple electromagnetic (EM) simulation software suites, including HFSS, CST, and FEKO, and includes integrated optimizers popular for multiparameter antenna design problems. Discussed are major software features for design, data collection and interpretation for machine learning (ML), internal simulation-integrated optimizers and their ML assisted hyperparameter tuning, and significance for replication studies.

Computational electromagnetics (CEM) is heavily intertwined with the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S). Effective designs for antennas and EM systems motivated accurate simulation tools that continuously exhausted the available computer resources. This two-part article traces the development of computational tools and techniques and ties them to milestones in computer hardware, the growth and development of the AP-S, and some historical events throughout the world.

This article reviews a recently developed benchmark suite for quantifying the performance of alternative computational approaches to solving radar cross-section (RCS) problems in aerospace applications. The Austin RCS Benchmark Suite 1) contains 20 problem sets, with 1,303 unique benchmark scattering problems, whose geometries, material properties, excitations, and quantities of interest are precisely defined; 2) organizes the problems along six dimensions according to the difficulty of computing their solutions; 3) provides reference RCS results for a select subset of the problems in each problem set, totaling 83 unique problems with reference results, obtained from full-wave computations in addition to analytical or measurement results; 4) includes models and sample meshes that define complex geometries as well as equations that define complex material properties for the problems that are most difficult to replicate independently; and 5) is available in online repositories.
