Hello everyone,
I am currently working on a project that requires me to use a MALA 2.3GHz antenna. However, I observed that only the 1.2 GHz antenna for MALA was added as part of the gprMax package. I wouldn't like to use the normal Gaussian pulse with the Hertzian dipole. I would like to use a "2.3GHz-like" Mala Antenna model. In that case, do I have to go through the whole Taguchi optimization method again to determine all five unknown parameters, or can I just make changes to the excitation frequency and leave the others constant in the code provided for the "MALA 1.2GHz antenna" in the gprMax package?
How do you recommend I go about this? I would appreciate your responses.
Thank you.
