How to define port for coplanar stripline (CPS) in HFSS - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Hi, all,
I don't know how to define a corret port for coplanar stripline. From the tutorial, I know how to draw port for coupled microstrip lines, but CPS does not have a common back ground. How to draw the integration line for CPS?
Thanks in advance!

you could draw a square between the CPS lines (in same plane with the lines) and define your port in the center of that square

Hi, thank you for your reply. I guess what you suggested is a lump port. Is that correct? But I want to set up a Waveport so that I can see the field lines. Do you know how to set waveport for CPS line?
