To define the horizontal, vertical or spherical antenna patterns, the dialog window is similar to those used to enter the function dialog windows. However the important difference is that antenna pattern dialog windows do not allow to set Constant parameters, and they have two displays to present the entered data - the usual XY plane, and the Polar display. These are illustrated by two respective pictures below.

...
It is assumed that the frequency has no impact on antenna efficiency/gain, therefore antenna gains are calculated based on pure peak gain combined with necessary angular discrimination in case of directional antennas (i.e. antennas having radiation patterns assigned in the scenario).
