The demand for phased array antennas increases not only for the traditional military industry but also in commercial areas such 5G mobile network platforms, Internet of Things (IoT), and satellite communication applications. This example shows how to design a phased array with a beam ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to simulate a metasurface beam deflector that uses anomalous refraction. The structure itself is a repeated array of six posts (so-called meta elements). The periodicity of the individual posts is 500 nm, so the full structure of six posts is 3 um wide. The ... Read More
This model uses the Wave Optics Module and the Ray Optics module to model the propagation of rays through a diffraction grating at different angles of incidence. It uses the S-parameters computed by the Electromagnetic Waves, Frequency Domain interface on a unit cell of the grating to ... Read More
Corrugated circular aperture (conical) horn antennas are popularly used as feed horns for dish reflector antennas due to their low sidelobes and cross-polarization level. The excited TE mode from a circular waveguide passes along the corrugated inner surface of a circular horn antenna, ... Read More
This example uses asymptotic techniques to study the radar cross-section (RCS) response of a conductive sphere. The selected physics interface transforms the incident plane-wave field on the boundaries to the far-field using the Stratton–Chu formula. The computed results are compared to ... Read More
This model utilizes a continuation solver to efficiently compute the current-voltage characteristics of a corona discharge generated by a wire-to-wire configuration. It provides a flexible framework that can be easily adapted to study other discharge configurations and types. Read More
The principle component of a quadrupole mass spectrometer is the mass filter which is used to filter ions with different charge to mass ratios. The quadrupole mass filter has been well studied over the years, Ref. 1 and the physics and optimal design are well understood. In a real ... Read More
This model of a circular waveguide demonstrates how to use ports with numerical solution of the port modes. It illustrates how to align the polarization of degenerate port modes and in particular how to model and excite the TE11 mode of circular waveguides in 3D. Read More
There are multiple ways to excite and terminate transmission lines using different types of port and lumped port features. In this example, transverse electromagnetic (TEM) type ports and a via type lumped port are used to simulate two adjacent microstrip lines. One via end is terminated ... Read More
Substrate Integrated Waveguides (SIW) can be used in antenna applications. Leaky waves from a slot array on the top surface of the SIW in this model generate a beam in a certain direction that can be steered by choosing a different operating frequency. Read More
