Hello everyone:
I do some simulations on Microstrip Line using HFSS. Please see the attachment. The conductor and substrate of Microstrip Line are copper and dielectric. The conductiviy of copper is 5.8*10^7 S/m. I wonder that the chracteristic impedance varies with frequency so sharply. The S11 is lowest at low frequeny width reference impedance of 50Ohm,but the simulation result of magnitude of Zo is around 56Ohm. I am curious how the HFSS calculate the Zo. I read the manu said that the Zo is obtained by Zpi, Zpv, or Zvi by calculting the fileds of 2D port structure. The method is right, but its result cannot make me believe. Microstrip line shall not be dispersive. If I use LineCalc in ADS to simuate the Zo, the Zo is almost const with frequency. Please give some comments on these issue. Thank you very much.
