Abstract
This paper describes recent progress with FEKO, an antenna simulation program. FEKO uses the Method of Moments (MoM), and also offers users a hybrid MoM/Physical Optics for suitable electrically large problems. Current work on UTD hybridization is outlined, as well as work on the pre- and post-processors. The performance of FEKO in high-performance computing environments is discussed. The incorporation of a rigorous stratified media treatment is reviewed and current plans for FEM hybridization briefly outlined.
