Transition Optimization<br />
The 2D field-solver example shows that close to 50Ω can be achieved if the ground plane<br />
under the pad footprint is cleared out. A 3D field solver is then used to verify this result to<br />
a greater degree of accuracy.<br />
Figure 5-6 shows the ground plane cleared away exactly as it was for the 2D simulation.<br />
Using frequency domain analysis within HFSS, there is a 20 dB (10x) improvement in<br />
return loss using this technique.<br />
