Hi...
I've a problem in using Ansoft Designer.
I've a planar structure like a metallic patch feeded by a strip.
Now if I simulate this structure as a Planar EM model I note a capacitive behaviour as I expect. But now I would like to insert a lumped inductor component at the middle of the strip that feeds the patch to make it resonant.
Problem...how can I incorporate the lumped component in the planar structure and simulate it?
I can't create a Planar EM subcircuit and then connect the inductor to it because the inductor is planced inside the planar model and not on the outside of the box containing my structure...
How can I do?
The similar problem arises with loop antennas. When I need to make the loop resonant I've to insert a lumped capacitor on the pcb but then how I can simulate it...
I've tried to use HFSS with a rectangle with Lumped RLC boundary assigning to it L value but I've not obtained the results expected because I need to account for the parasitic effects of the lumped real components...It's for this reason I've thought to Designer but now I don't know how to resolve this problem...
Thanks in adv..
