I have a plane wave incident on a horn antenna and would like to measure the voltage at the port of the antenna? How do I go about it?
Waiting for some input..
Regards,
Hi,
Measure Electric field, by pattern or strength (Given in different colors), calculate voltage or use voltage monitor (or take FFT of voltage vs. frequency) to measure voltage.
Thanks,
@Smrity: Thanks. Problem solved. I integrated the E-filed along a line at the port. It was easy. However, can you please explain the voltage monitor that you pointed to. What exactly do you mean?
Regards
@Hassan Sajjad: Sir can you please help on how you integrated the E_Field along line?
@Hassan Sajjad, when you do this method, do you also have to include a negative sign, since the voltage should be -int(E.dl), right?
Yes, and the line that you integrate along does not have to be included in the model, it can be non-model.
@Hassan, thanks for your response. I am aware that the line can be non-model, but do you know in which direction is the integration performed in? How do you think I can check if the integration is being performed between end points (say A to B or B to A) over the line?
If you do it with a negative sign, then it goes from A to B, A being your lower limit.
