Note: When displaying S-Parameter variables, the phase of the solution must be set<br />

to zero. Otherwise, incorrect values will be displayed. In the various dialogs for<br />

displaying and plotting data that are available from the Postprocessing menu, the<br />

phase of the solution can be set via the Solution at angle (phase) field. If the dialog box<br />

contains several tabs, it usually appears on the General page.<br />

The plot shows that S 11 is minimized by setting eps_r to 1.28. Make this change in<br />

the Constants dialog box, open the Solver Parameters dialog, select the Stationary solver,<br />

initialize the mesh, and solve again. Any standing wave pattern should barely be visible<br />

now. Change the inport from Port 1 to Port 2 by editing the boundary settings for<br />

these boundaries and solve again to see the nonreciprocal behavior of the device.<br />

Extracting the S-Parameter Matrix<br />

This section requires that you run COMSOL Multiphysics with MATLAB.<br />
