NEC2: Legendary Numerical Electromagnetics Code
2025-07-05
This website is a central repository for documentation and code examples related to NEC2 (Numerical Electromagnetics Code), a Method of Moments based electromagnetic simulation software. Developed in 1981 by Jerry Burke and A. Poggio at Lawrence Livermore Labs for the US Navy, NEC2 is now publicly available. The site offers instructions on running NEC2 in a Windows environment, tutorials, sample models, and a user manual (HTML and PDF versions) covering program description and user guides. Additionally, it provides details on constructing a BiQuad antenna, its NEC simulation model, links to a NEC mailing list, and other related resources.
