Excitation sources in CST Excitation sources in CST Waveguide ports Waveguide ports are a special type of domain boundary condition that stimulates the absorption of energy. This is done by solving the possible eigenmodes in the 2D port plane using a 2D frequency domain solver. Each possible electromagnetic field solution at the port can be obtained by superposition of numerous modes. However, in practice, a small number of modes are sufficient for field simulation. The number of modes to be considered in the solution can be set in the Waveguide Port dialog box. Note that the input signal to the excitation waveguide port is normalized to a peak power of 1 sqrt (Watt). The use of waveguide ports is defined by the number of port types with different requirements and characteristics. Therefore, we must first accurately determine the type of excitation problem and then select and define the appropriate waveguide ports. In the case of inhomogeneity, broadband ports are available, or inhomogeneous port accuracy enhancement, we can choose to use normal waveguide ports. At the same time, multipin ports can calculate the TEM modes of decay. Standard waveguide port Standard waveguide port is a rectangular or circular waveguide structure that we often use. It is shielded by PEC boundary conditions, so the port mode is confined to the port area. Uniform waveguide port The right figure is a uniform, rectangular standard waveguide port, solved by the normal waveguide operator. The figure below is a waveguide port with three modes, which are classified according to their respective cutoff frequencies. The number of propagation modes depends on the selected frequency range. In transient simulation, it is recommended to consider all propagation modes, because the unconsidered modes will cause reflections at the port. The same considerations are also applied to the fall-off modes. If necessary, the solver will check these situations and give warning messages. htNon-uniform waveguide port If the waveguide is filled with two or more materials as shown in the right figure, then the mode is frequency-dependent. As shown in the figure below, there are three TE modes at different frequencies. The higher the frequency (the frequency increases from left to right), the more concentrated the field is...
