A two-dimensional phenomenological model of patch-domain formation on
unsaturation in strongly coupled tri- and multilayer antiferromagnets is
presented. Domain patterns are simulated using a fast Monte Carlo
algorithm. As a first example the autocorrelation function of the
simulated domain pattern is compared with that of a measured Kerr image.
