Abstract This paper proposes a representation of antenna in two‐port network s‐parameter, by exploiting the analogy between the antenna and a two‐port network, to produce a suitable method for evaluating antennas in system and circuit simulation. Complicated steps required by previous methods to determine an antenna‐specific equivalent‐circuit and its corresponding resistor, inductor, and capacitor values are avoided. Simulations results obtained for the circuit and system software confirms the validity of the proposed scheme. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
