Adding a Real Ground Plane
Updated
A real ground plane, located on the xy-plane (Z = 0), can be added to the model by means of the following procedure:
- Go to Setup tab > Environment panel >.
- Select the Real option in the Ground Plane box, Fig. 1.
- Specify the Real Ground Option: Sommerfeld-Wait/Asymptotic >, Reflection Coefficients/Asymptotic >, or Radial Wire Ground Screen >.
- Set the ground Permittivity and Conductivity. Also, set the radial length, number of radials and wire radius if a ground screen has been chosen.
