EM simulation and antenna engineering

Simulation is what makes concept-to-prototype a controlled process instead of a series of expensive guesses.

EM simulation

Full-wave modelling of complex structures: predict real-world behaviour and optimise thoroughly before any hardware exists. Primarily Remcom XFdtd, and I can work inside your own environment where a licence is available.

  • RF design and optimisation
  • Antenna-platform integration studies
  • RCS optimisation
  • Propagation in complex environments

Antenna design

Antennas for demanding environments where off-the-shelf parts fall short — integration, mutual coupling reduction, impedance matching and pattern optimisation.

  • Wire, aperture, microstrip and conformal
  • Phased arrays and metasurface antennas
  • HF through mmWave
  • Antenna-body interaction
  • Measurement, validation and reporting

Michal Červený

Antenna and Electromagnetic Simulation Specialist

Nearly a decade as a Research Associate in Electronic and Electrical Engineering at the University of Sheffield, working across the full stack: full-wave simulation, antenna and RF design, PCB layout, embedded firmware, FPGA integration and physical prototyping.

My research covered electromagnetic scattering surfaces, both active and passive, frequency-selective surfaces and metasurfaces, and RF propagation in difficult environments — inside a Rolls-Royce Trent 900 aero engine, and in maritime conditions. In both cases high-fidelity simulation was validated against measured data.

Throughout that time I worked with industrial and government partners including QinetiQ, BAE Systems, DSTL and Rolls-Royce, which gave me academic rigour paired with real industry constraints.

In 2024 I completed my Ph.D. in metasurfaces and frequency-selective surfaces at the Czech Technical University in Prague, and moved into independent consultancy.
