leaky hfss
Hello! I am an HFSS v9.1 user and I face many problems. I have to simulate a leaky-wave antenna which consists of a rectangular waveguide and a stub waveguide wiht a smaller length above it. I have designed the geometry in terms of boxes united together and two tapers that connect the two boxes of different length. I have assigned the perfectH boundary to the surface indicating the apperture of the antenna (the top of the stub-waveguide). I have defined the small surfaces of the rectangular waveguide (the longer box at the bottom) as waveports. I have also designed a virtual box arround the geometry and I have assigned the radiation boundary to the surfaces of the box, to obtain the far field. Although I have worked really hard on it, neither the far field pattern nor the diagrams of the leaky constant and phase constant versus frequency are correct. Can somebody tell me what are the possible mistakes that I have made? I am really desperate and I would appreciate any help! (sorry for the long forum)
