Calculating the Near E-Field

Once the current distribution on the structure has been calculated, the near electric field can be computed at the points in space specified in the Near-Field panel of the Setup tab.

To calculate the near electric field:

  • Navigate to Run > Run Near E-Field in the main menu (see Fig. 1).
    • This command is enabled only after the current distribution has been calculated.

Tips

  • To sequentially and automatically calculate both the current distribution and the near fields, click the Run Currents and Near-Field (F12) button on the toolbar. This command also calculates the near H-Field.
  • To avoid calculating the H-Field, go to Main Menu > Tools > Preferences > Options and uncheck the “Run ALL” also calculates the H-Field option.
