I understand your point and I considered it.

I just want to assure it will be okay. As you mentioned I shall keep the width of the waveguide large enough so that when the width is increased the port can excite the mode as per the dimension of the waveguide. And extracted s-parameter will account both I/O form a port in the Interconnect. Even though in FDTD only one port can be assigned as sourse while rest are destination.

One more thing yet remain: I want to control/change the width of the waveguide from the interconnect, not in FDTD. So how shall I export the s-parameters of FDTD for Interconnect.
1. Shall I just take s-parameter sweep then export it for interconnect (Which appear wrong to me as there is no direct way where one can change the width of waveguide in interconnect; which is itself exported from other solver (here FDTD). If there is let me know how to do it).
2. Or I shall first take the waveguide width sweep in FDTD then take the s-parameter sweep. In that case does s-parameter extraction would itself account for variation in width of waveguide or any other sweep.
3. If not the 2nd then how, we can do it (if scripting require please share any example).

Thank you.
