Waveguide PortSimulation: Sources and Loads Waveguide PortWaveguide ports are used to feed the calculation domain with power and to absorb the returning power. For each waveguide port, S&endash;parameters (and time signals for time domain simulations) will be recorded during a solver run. In practice, the port can be substituted by a longitudinal homogenous waveguide connected to the structure. You will need at least one excitation source (either a waveguide port, a discrete port, or a plane wave) to feed the structure , before starting a solver run.Note: The input signal of an excited waveguide port is normalized to 1 sqrt(Watt).Note: If you pick a face that is aligned to one of the coordinate axes before entering this dialog box, it will define the dimensions of the new port region.General frame Name: Select a valid name from the drop down list. This number will be displayed on the port face in structure plots and will be used for naming the S-parameters results. Please note that the port numbers are shared with the discrete port definitions. Label: Here, you may define a label for the port. Normal:
In order to create a port parallel to the calculation domain's boundaries,
please choose between X,
Y or Z. Please note, that especially for solvers
based on hexahedral meshes this orientation is an important precondition. Orientation: Please define here the orientation of the port, i.e., the direction of radiation. A lower port radiates in the positive direction and an upper port radiates in the negative direction, related to the selected port's normal coordinate axis. Usually the choice corresponds to the definition at the lower or upper boundaries of the calculation domain. However, it is also possible to define internal ports inside the calculation domain.
Text size: Use this slider to adjust the text size of the port number in the main-view. Position frame Coordinates: Here, you may choose different possibilities for entering the transversal port dimensions as well as its normal position.
Free normal position: Please activate this button to define an internal port, i.e. a port location inside the calculation domain. This check button is only enabled for a Free or Full plane transversal range setting (see above).
Reference plane frame Distance to ref. plane: Specifies the distance to your reference plane to obtain the correct phase information for the S-parameters (deembeding). Positive values move the reference plane outwards, negative inwards. The deembeding can also be performed after the calculation run. See Postprocessing: Signal Post Processing S-Parameter Calculations Deembed S-Parameter.... The picture below shows a waveguide port with negative distance to the reference plane, i.e. the reference plane is moved inwards.
Mode settings frame Multipin port: Check this box if you want to define a multipin port. Define pins...: After you press this button, the Current Set Definitions Dialog will appear and you may define a multipin port by adding new current sets. On leaving the dialog, the Multipin port check box will be checked or unchecked, depending on the existence of multipins. Number of modes: Specifies the number of modes to be calculated and used for the simulation. Single-ended: This check button offers the possibility to automatically recalculate the scattering parameters as a post processing step due to previously defined single-ended multipin ports. Consequently during setup of the multipin definition a separate mode set has to be created for each of the inner conductors, i.e. one (usually the outermost) conductor remains undefined representing the ground conductor. Afterwards this check button is enabled and can be activated for single-ended calculation.
For more detailed information about single-ended ports please refer to Multipin Port Overview. Please note, that by applying single-ended port mode calculation the solvers automatically activate renormalization to fixed impedance, however, the impedance value itself can be modified in the corresponding solver dialog box before starting the simulation. Ensure shielding: If the port mode domain is not already electrically shielded (as e.g. in a coaxial waveguide) this box can be checked to activate a special treatment of the boundary: electric: the boundary of the waveguide port is treated as a PEC shielding frame. magnetic: the boundary of the waveguide port is treated as a PMC shielding frame. Note that conductors in the port shield will not be removed and might cut through the PMC shield. Leaving this box unchecked will apply the default treatment for port boundaries of the used solver. Impedance and calibration: Check this box if you want to define impedance, calibration and polarization lines. More detailed information about mode calibration is given in the Waveguide Port Overview. Define lines...: Pressing this button will open the Mode Impedance and Calibration dialog box enabling you to define impedance, calibration and polarization lines. On leaving the dialog, the Impedance and calibration check box will be checked or unchecked, depending on the existence of data. Please note: Definition of impedance and calibration lines is currently only available for tetrahedral mesh representations. Polarization angle: When mode degeneration occurs, two modes sharing one propagation constant can be combined linearly. By entering a polarization angle (between 0 and 360 degrees) you can determine the main direction of the E-fields for the first of those modes, which will then be visualized by a green arrow in the port plane: A more detailed description can be found on
