Single Port Coplanar Waveguide Resonator for measuring reflection

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all,

I am trying to simulate a coplanar waveguide resonator and obtain the resonant frequency and Q-factor using RF module in COMSOL. I used the lumped port boundary condition and with two ports (with wave excitation ON for one of them), I get resonance at around 90 GHz. However, I want to simulate a CPW resonator with a single port, as experimentally I will be measuring the reflection (with resonance corresponding to a dip in ).

When I remove the second port, I see no sign of resonance despite sweeping frequency from 2 to 250 GHz. is always > dB.

It would be great if someone could give some pointers about anything that I may be missing here!

Tl;dr: I want a CPW resonator with a single port to show a dip in indicating resonance.

Thanks!
