Hello,

Would you be able to tell me how many modes are you using in the two sections having the straight waveguides? Sometimes, when we have a large number of modes in the tapered section, we also need to use a large number of modes for expansion in the straight waveguides so that the mode-matching is more accurate. 

If you are using a lower number, can you try increasing this value, and then run this convergence test?
