Introduction

This document is intended as supplementary material to HFSS for beginners and advanced users. It includes instructions to create, simulate, and analyze a probe feed patch antenna using the Terminal solution type.

This chapter contains the following topic:

 

Sample Project: Patch Antenna

This example shows you how to create a probe feed patch antenna as an HFSS design type, setup and run a terminal solution analysis, and review the results using the Ansys Electronics Desktop application. The model, shown below, consists of a substrate, infinite ground plane, patch, and a coax and probe feed assembly:
