Physics Education Using 3D Antenna Simulations

E-learning physics using visualizations of certain physical characteristics of the studied phenomenon are described. Teaching electromagnetism and radio-electronics, the fundamentals of radio-wave propagation and antenna construction may be realized effectively using 3D visualization, either through static or dynamic 3D graphics. The author tries to establish an e-learning route for implementing modern learning methods based on information technologies in radio physics and electromagnetism courses in universities. The current paper discloses the benefits of implementing free access 3D software for e-learning purposes through analyzing helix antenna in axial mode.
