What can I do if I don't know the natural frequency? Can I normalize it at all?

Hey all, This question may sound daft, but how do I normalize angular frequency? For a little background: I'm trying to optimize some circuits, and I've managed to write some successful code using the "Design of Ultra Wideband Antenna Matching Networks" book, but the code requires normalized...

Oh, okay! That actually makes more sense considering that the software uses the real frequency technique.

I'm working with some old software to optimize antenna networks, and I've come across some stuff that I don't understand. For the software to run, all impedence values entered must be normalized to 1 ohm. What does it mean to normalize an impedence and how do I do it? Also, the manual for the...

This device will be going on to a spacecraft , so there isn't much room to work with when determining antenna types. All I'm looking for is software that can optimize a circuit connected to a complex load defined by a function. We already have one software package, but due diligence requires...

Our goal is impedence matching. Ideally we'll create an antenna network (circuit) that we will attach to some impedence function based on frequency. We're trying to get the highest gain from that. Sorry I wasn't more clear to begin with. Does that help?

Hey all, I'm working on the JUICE mission (Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer) and I've been tasked with finding software (preferably open source, but paid is fine) that can optimize circuit network designs that I upload. Originally I was trying to find programs that would run optimization using the...
