Incident Waves Theory

There are different kinds of incident wave sources in HFSS. Analytical wave forms are defined by formulas. The following analytical wave forms exist:

• Plane Wave

• Evanescent Plane Wave

• Electric Spherical Wave (Electric Hertzian Dipole)

• Magnetic Spherical Wave (Magnetic Hertzian Dipole)

• Cylindrical Wave

• Gaussian Beam

• Linear Antenna

Numerical Wave Forms can come from the solution of another HFSS project or from a non-HFSS project via DataLink. Two numerical wave forms exist:

• Near Field Wave

• Far Field Wave
