Best finite element method solver HFSS and For Antenna design

What do you like best?

I liked most the ease with which we can design Antennas and simulate their EM effect amd also designing antenna arrays are way easier

There are great benefits of Ansys as I am Antenna Designer.

I usually design Antenna in HFSS befor going for fabrication process.

HFSS helps me to analuze antenna Parameters properly and how this antenna will perform in real world amd if changings are required we do it in Ansys rather then going staright to fabrication

HFSS is one of several commercial tools used for antenna design, and the design of complex radio frequency electronic circuit elements including filters, transmission lines, and packaging. It was originally developed by Professor Zoltan Cendes and his students at Carnegie Mellon University.

What do you dislike?

Depends on what kinds of problems you are trying to solve. For certain nonlinear problem with complex geometries, using Ansys software is difficult

Mathematical Method used in hfss

Hfss uses a numerical technique called the finite element method.this is procedure where a structure is subdivided into many smaller subsection called finite element. The finite element used by hfss are tetrahedra and entire collection of tetrahedral is called mesh.solution is found for the fields within the finite element and these fields are interrelated so that Maxwell's equations are satisfied across interelement byeildings .yeildings a field solution for the entire original structure.once the field solution has found the s matrix solution is determined.
