HFSS15: Wave Equation
The field pattern of a traveling wave inside a waveguide can be determined by solving Maxwell’s equations. For each mode m, the port solver solves the following equation obtained from Maxwell’s equation.

where
k0 = w/c
is the wave number of free-space
mr(x,y) is the complex relative permeability.
er(x,y) is the complex relative permittivity.
By solving the equation, the electric field mode pattern Em(x,y) and the propagation constant gm are both obtained for all the modes specified for a given port. For the current based impedance calculations, the port solver also solves independently for Hm(x,y) using a corresponding equation for the magnetic field.
Also note that the excitation field pattern computed by the port solver is valid only at a given frequency. A different excitation field pattern is computed for each frequency point of interest.
