FEATURE ARTICLE
example, they do not require direct visual contact, which means
they work amidst surrounding obstacles and can be operated in a
wear-free manner. Optical systems are generally based on complicated and time-consuming image processing methods which
require fast processors. Furthermore, the data that can be collected is limited to the visible environment which can be captured
by the camera system. Mechanical systems have a complicated
design and are subject to natural wear and tear, which limits their
service life.
Electromagnetic tracking systems
generally require two components.
A transmitting and a receiving
antenna. The magnetic waves
generated in the transmitter induce
voltages in the receiving antenna which are forwarded to the
microprocessor-aided evaluation
unit. The antennas each possess
three orthogonally oriented coils
for generating, or collecting, information in all three spatial axes.

electrical and geometric properties,
this corresponds to an isotropic
antenna design. Such a unit shows advantages in the evaluation
of signal information, as the transmitted outgoing and incoming
signals can be related directly to each other. When these properties are bundled, the result assumes the shape of what is called
a 3D cube antenna.
Simulation is an important step in the product development.
Technical requirements with regard to inductance, sensitivity,
operating frequency, and additional parameters determine the
design of 3D cube antennas. Comprehensive simulations are
performed as part of the design process.
