Deal all,
I am simulating a filter with 50Ω microstrip as input/ouput (Er=2.2, h=1mm,w=3.11mm, Fre=9-11GHz) in HFSS. According to the rules, the width of waveport is about 5w and the height of waveport is about 4h. However, the dimensions of the waveport exceed the lambda/2, which permits the TE10 retangtular waveguide mode excitation. If the dimensions of waveport are deceased, the field distribution of port becomes bad and the impedance of microstrip is a bit smaller than 50Ω (46Ω).
What should I do? If I choose only one mode in waveport setup, do the high order modes have effect on the simulation results?
Thanks in advance!
