SCALAR VARIABLES<br />

1 From the Physics menu, select Scalar Variables.<br />

2 In the Application Scalar Variables dialog box, set the Frequency to freq.<br />

3 Click OK.<br />

PHYSICS SETTINGS<br />

Boundary Conditions<br />

The default boundary condition is perfect electric conductor which is fine for all<br />

exterior boundaries except at the ports. Interior boundaries are by default not active<br />

meaning that continuity is imposed.<br />

1 From the Physics menu, choose Boundary Settings.<br />

2 At Boundaries 1, 20, and 21, specify the Port boundary condition. On the Conditions<br />

and Port pages set the values according to the following table; when done, click OK.<br />

SETTINGS BOUNDARY 1 BOUNDARY 20 BOUNDARY 21<br />

Port number 1 3 2<br />

Wave excitation at this port Selected Cleared Cleared<br />

Mode specification Analytic Analytic Analytic<br />

Mode number 1 1 1<br />

Subdomain Settings<br />

1 From the Physics menu, choose Subdomain Settings.<br />

2 In the Subdomain Settings dialog box, click the Groups tab and create three groups<br />

called air, dielectric, and ferrite, respectively, by clicking the New button and<br />

replacing new group in the Name edit field with the name of each group.<br />

3 Keep the default subdomain settings for the air group. For the dielectric group,<br />

change the Relative permittivity to eps_r. For the ferrite group, set the Relative<br />

permittivity to 12.9, and enter the Relative permeability, as four space-separated<br />

entries in this edit field: mur -i*kr i*kr mur.<br />

4 On the Subdomains page, assign Subdomains 1, 3, 6, and 7 to the air group;<br />

Subdomains 2, 4, and 5 to the dielectric group; and Subdomain 8 to the ferrite<br />

group.<br />

5 Click OK.<br />
