Get Started

This workshop focuses on simulating an microstrip trace with stub connected to a SMA connector using Ansys HFSS™ high-frequency electromagnetic simulation software. You will learn how to insert 3D components, assign boundaries, create lumped ports, define radiation regions, and set up parametric sweeps. It covers analyzing S-parameters for different positions of the stub along the trace. It also covers visualizing surface current distributions to view the electromagnetic field propagation along the traces. 

Learning Outcomes:

Following completion of this workshop, you will be able to:

  • Integrate 3D components into HFSS designs. 
  • Assign boundaries and ports open transmission line configurations. 
  • Configure analysis setups including HPC options and frequency sweeps. 
  • Perform parametric studies to evaluate design variations. 
  • Interpret S-parameter plots for bandwidth and resonance behaviour. 
  • Visualize surface current distributions for better understanding of RF performance. 
  • Optimize stub position for desired frequency response. 

Prerequisites:

  • Getting Started with HFSS Software course.

Please note: These training materials were developed and tested in the 2025 R1 release.
