Adding a Solution Setup for HFSS 3D Layout

Each set of solution parameters to be solved by HFSS 3D Layout is listed as a setup under Analysis in the Project Tree.

To add a new solution setup to a project using initial meshing tools:

1. Do one of the following:
   • From the HFSS 3D Layout menu, open Solution Setup.
   • From the Project Manager window, expand the Project Tree and right-click Analysis.
2. To open the Solution Setup window, select the menu option for the solution type you want to add:
   • Add HFSS Solution Setup
   • Add HFSS PI Solution Setup
   • Add Planar EM Solution Setup
   • Add SIwave Solution Setup
   • Add LNA Solution Setup

The easiest way to set up a solution is to accept the Fixed Mesh and Frequency defaults that appear in the HFSS 3D Layout or HFSS setup window, then click OK, which automatically opens the Sweep window. Click OK to accept the sweep with the suggested defaults. Alternately, change the default values or add more setups by referring to one or more of the following topics.
