Hello,
I have a question about an antenna simulation with CST Studio Suite. I have a Bowtie-Antenna, which is fed by a balun and a coaxial cable.

I want to simulate the reflection coefficient of this antenna with CST with a differential feeding. Now my problem is, that I do not know which way of designing the antenna is the right one. I have tried two options:

1. Bowtie_1.PNG, S11_Bowtie_1_simuliert.PNG
2. Bowtie_2.PNG, S11_Bowtie_2_simuliert.PNG

On the pictures you can see the different way of differential feeding I tried and the resulting reflection coefficient.
Which one is the right way to simulate the bowtie-Antenna?
The next picture shows the measured reflection coefficient of the real antenna:

The reflection coefficient of the first option looks more like the measured results, but I am not sure, whether the design of the antenna is really correct.

Can anyone tell me, which antenna design is the correct one?
Thanks.
