Viewing the Results

View the results from the FSS element simulation in POSTFEKO.

Plot the coefficients as a function of the plane wave theta and phi angles.
Tip: Assess if sufficient θ and ϕ samples have been used. If the coefficients are constant (for example, in ϕ) it is possible to use a single θ cut to describe the surface, which can reduce the computational time.


Figure 1. Transmission / reflection coefficient versus plane wave theta.


Figure 2. Transmission / reflection coefficient versus plane wave phi.

Note that the FSS elements have relatively good transmission through all θ and ϕ (> 0.7) at 10 GHz.

The plots also show that sufficient resolution (6°) was used to capture the variations in θ and ϕ.
