Discrepancy in Transmission coefficients using DFT monitor and s params group

  Dear Sir/Madam,
  
  I have used the s params analysis group, to calculate the s and s polarization and transmission coefficients. When I use the transmission monitor, I get a plot as shown below
  
  Then, I have used the result S from the s_params analysis group to calculate the T for the x polarised incidence. I have done the abs(s12)^2, I got the following plot,
  
  As far as I know, if we have to measure the transmission coefficients, we must do the abs(S_12)^2. But why do I get such a discrepancy? Can you shed some light on it?
  
  Thank you.

  Hi,
  Yes, I believe the results should be the same. Is the resolution of data/number of points used to plot the graph in both cases same?

  Is there a solution to this discrepancy? I am having the same issues in a simulation. The data points are the same.
