TicraUtilities - Tools for working with Ticra-compatible files and data objects in the Julia language

Documentation	Tests	CodeCov

TicraUtilities is a package to facilitate working with Ticra-compatible files and data objects in the Julia language. TICRA is a Danish company specializing in antenna analysis and synthesis software. Their products for analysis and design of reflector antennas (and associated feed structures) are widely regarded as standards in the antenna community. As a result, the file formats defined and used by TICRA software have also become de facto industry standards.

This package provides utilities in the Julia programming language for

• Reading, writing, and plotting Ticra-compatible cut (.cut) files.
• Reading, parsing, and writing Ticra Object Repository (.tor) files.
• Converting cut files to and from spherical wave expansion (.sph) files.
• Reading and writing so-called "station" (.stn) files.
• Reading and writing array excitation (.exi) files.
• Reading and writing "surface" (.sfc) files.
• And more...

Package Installation

You can obtain TicraUtilities using Julia's Pkg REPL-mode (hitting ] as the first character of the command prompt):

(v1.10) pkg> add TicraUtilities

(and then hitting <Backspace> to return to the REPL), or with using Pkg; Pkg.add("TicraUtilities").
