FUNCTION: Creates a set of randomly located and randomly oriented buildings with random dimensions and impenetrable walls in the project workspace
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates an array of pyramidal horn antennas fed by rectangular waveguides a realistic urban propagation scene with randomly located buildings in a TE10 modal excitation. The larger dimension square area of each feeding waveguide is set slightly larger than half its cutoff wavelength for the dominant TE10 modespecified size. The aspect ratio of each waveguide's cross section is 2:1It can be used in two different ways. Its length is set to half In the free-space wavelengthfully random mode, all the generated buildings are assigned and always retain random parameter values. All of these dimensions can be replaced by arbitrary numeric Every time you open the Variables Dialog or open the same project, all the random variables get updated values. The horn aperture dimensions and its overall length In the semi-random mode, the buildings are calculated initially generated based on the specified antenna gain. All of random parameter values, but these dimensions can be changedvalue are then fixed and locked for good. By default, tooa half-wave vertical dipole transmitter is placed at the center of the scene and a grid of isotropic receivers cover the entire propagation scene.

FUNCTION: Creates a multi-story office building with penetrable walls in the project workspace
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates an array of pyramidal horn antennas fed by rectangular waveguides office building with a TE10 modal excitation. The larger dimension multiple floor and rows of each feeding waveguide is set slightly larger than half its cutoff wavelength for the dominant TE10 mode. The aspect ratio of each waveguide's cross section is 2:1. Its length is set to half the free-space wavelength. All of these dimensions can be replaced rooms separated by arbitrary numeric values. The horn aperture dimensions and its overall length are calculated based on the specified antenna gain. All of these dimensions can be changed, toohallways.

== Hilly Terrain Wizard ==
 
ICON: [[File:hill_icon.png]]
 
MENU: '''Tools → Propagation Wizards → Hilly Terrain'''
 
MODULE(S): [[EM.Terrano]]
 
FUNCTION: Creates a hilly terrain with a random rough surface in the project workspace
 
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates a hilly terrain using a surface object generated with a Gaussian profile. The surface is then roughened based on the specified statistics.
 
 
PYTHON COMMAND(S): emag_hill(area_size,height,radius,elevation,res,rms_height,correl_len)

MODULE(S): [[EM.Terrano]]
 
FUNCTION: Creates a mountainous terrain with a random rough surface in the project workspace
 
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates a mountainous terrain using a surface object generated with a bi-cubic spline profile. The surface is then roughened based on the specified statistics. This wizard can be used to create either a mountain range with three peaks or a single-peak mountain.
