i want to supply a microstrip antenna with a planar dipole patch in HFSS.
(as you see in this figure) notes : 1- the feed must locate at center and suplly symetrically both arms 2- the feed must be wave or lumped port , because i need input impedance
i don't know which method is the best excitation for this structure ? and how should be supplied ? wave port or lumped port ?
60 point award is for the best reply (i don't have more)
dear savedadogs,
thank you for your reply,
I'd wrote: "1- the feed must locate at center and suplly symetrically both arms"
but it means that, at center, the current must be enter to one arms and exit from another. infact i'm going to simulate an ordinary dipole antenna but in the form of patch and on a substrate with ground plane.
Code:
current----> current----->
(arm1) ------------------------- ------------------------- (arm2)
substrate
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (ground)
<---- current <---- current
