Dear Community
I got demo-Versions of Microwave Office and Sonnet (Lite).
When I draw a CPW with ground-planes touching the side-wall and two
ports on the Signal-Wire on both ends (Edge-Ports) I found out that in
such a situation both Microwave Office and Sonnet give currents such
that the sum of currents on grounds and singal-wires do not vanish but
there's about 15 % too much on the signal wire.
MWO: If I use internal ports, then I get current conservation
Sonnet: Using push-pull ports, I get current-conservation too.
Can anyone please explain me why there's no current-conservation in the
first case?
Since for my MWO design I cannot rely on internal ports, can anyone
please tell how to get current conservation using edge-ports?
Thanks
Pascal
