hi guys,
i have used HFSS for a long time,and i also designed and fabricated two or three RFID tag antenna for various applications.but now,i confuse about some setup about simulation,beacause i had seen many different viewpoint to this,but i believe some of them must be wrong or fallacious,i hope u can help me and make clear why. my questons are as follows:
1,we all know the impedance of rfid tag antenna need be designed to match the microchip impedance for max power transfer,but how to setup in HFSS?i saw four different ways to "full port impedance " and "port renormalization",pls look over attachment named "port setup"(chip impedance is 20-j160).i need know which is right or more accurate? i use the second way,but other designer use other ways also have good design and fabricate tag which also have good performance.
2,many thesis and paper refer to S11 parameter in HFSS for tag antenna,expatiated the reflection coefficient matching complex chip impedance is T=Zc-conj(Za)/Zc+Za(is this formula right?),the power reflection coefficient is then abs(T)²,so is it reasonable directly adopt default S11,VSWR of HFSS in results?i saw someone leave 50ohm in full port impedance of excitations,and directly use S parameter of HFSS in result,but it has nothing to do with the chip's impedance,so i don't think it's reasonable,but how to setup output variables for this?i never saw others sample or model,so if possible,a simple or model including all parameter(VSWR,GAIN.S11,return loss and so on) is very useful for me. best wishes!
