I am trying to design a planar to dielectric waveguide transition with a schematic as shown in the figure alongwith. Despite a good S11 at a particular frequency, the S21 is not that good. I would like to know how to find out the power radiated in CST for example to understand where the power is going. Note that I have simulated all lossy dielectrics as lossfree and used PEC for the microstrip patch, so I guess its either being radiated or going into higher modes. WOuld be very obliged to have your opinions on this.

Figure below: Port 1 is the input port for the Microstrip line feed and port 2 the output port above the waveguide.
