mode solver with loss
Hi all,
This is probably a simple question, but the answer is not coming to me right away so I thought I'd post here.
Recently, I've begun using the Eigen Mode solver in HFSS. At first I was viewing coupling between resonators, then moved onto loading a resonator with loss.
When loss was introduced frequencies became complex.
My question is simple: why is the frequency complex with loss? I assume the reason is fundamental and not specific to HFSS (i.e. pure math).
Thanks!
David
