RE: PSpice model for 1/4 wavelength antenna
Robert, sorry this is so late but I was out last week. A three-element series RLC SPICE model for your antenna is: 36 ohms, 2.13 pF, 63 nH. Here is how it compares to a NEC model of a 6.5 inch long, #12 AWG wire, over perfect ground: FREQ SPICE NEC 100 36-j668 1-j712 200 36-j294 5-j302 300 36-j130 14-j137 400 36-j2830-j27 500 36+j4859+j61 600 36-j113 123+j170 You can see that is looses accuracy above resonance. If you need a better model I think I can develop a better one that incorporates a transmission line.

RE: PSpice model for 1/4 wavelength antenna
Hi Robert, SPICE is a time domain tool, you might have difficulty finding a suitable model as most antenna analysis is performed in the frequency domain. To find the radiation resitance and impedance of a monopole is easy using one of the NEC family of codes (Numerical Electromagnetics Code) MininNEC etc. but this would not be a sufficient model for a SPICE run. Length diameter, feedpoint etc can all be considered but I know of no efficent tool for doing this in the time domain. Colin..

PSpice model for 1/4 wavelength antenna
Does someone out there have a PSpice model for a 1/4 wavelength antenna? 433.92MHz Something that I can change to reflect diameter of the rod, detuning, etc. Or, do you know someone who has such a model?
