Hello,
I created a layout component in ADS.
at 450MHz I simulated the input impedance for two different resistance values placed between two ports.
Using a 50 ohm resistor I measured roughly 50 ohms.
Using a large resistor I measured roughly a short.
My mesh setup is attached.
Can anyone explain why ADS is giving these incorrect values and how I can fix the problem?
Thankyou

Why do I not see a Large resistance value with a small amount of inductance. I would have expected a value similar to 1Tohm + 3.149i; Instead 0.1 - 300*i which has a really small real component with a small series capacitor.
But, looking at your layout, you are adding in shunt to the high real load an open stub (from some calculation, 15mm of 50 Ohm impedance line (in air) terminated by an open will give you exactly that impedance). This is the answer, I guess.
