Hi!
I have desinged a patch array antenna with sidelobe level less than -16 dB and return loss is better than 13 dB over the designed bandwidth (center freq. 13.7 GHz). Now the antenna need to be positioned inside a housing where the location of the antenna is fixed, i.e., nothing can be...

I don't think there is any impedance variation with different scan angle. and with source edit, you can see the variations in E-field, H-field and surface current etc.
Re: 2*1 patch array
The single patch simulation does not give a useable design at 10 GHz. this is the return loss what I have found. Is it the same what you have got?
Re: 2*1 patch array
I simulated one patch from your uploaded file. However, it does not have the characteristics you told (10 GHz resonance, S11 at -21db and vswr 1.12).
would you please upload your single patch?
port excitation hfss
HFSS also supports explicit excitation. Just go to HFSS>Fields>Edit sources and change "scaling factor" and "offset phase" as required.
Re: HFSS and UWB antenna
"fast" takes less time while "discrete" takes longer. To have first impression, fast can be used. for more accuracy, discrete is used.
For UWB, CST takes much less time. This is due to the fact that it uses time domain signal and then converts it to freqeuency domain...
