SubscriberHello I am learning how to use HFSS and am trying to replicate a metasurface. The metasurface is designed for circular polarization so I am using floquet ports to simulate a unit cell. I turned on TE mode and also TM mode but with 90 degree phase in edit sources so that it would create a circularly polarized mode. Where I am having trouble is how to read the s parameters for the circularly polarized mode? -

In Lumerical FDTD, once you use ports you can automatically get S parameters. However currently the port does not use circular polarization source. You will need to do two simulaitons and combine the S results, if you use Lumerical FDTD. Ports are mainly used for waveguide modes.

SubscriberCould you please explain how to combine the S11 parameters of TE and TM modes to determine the CP S11 parameter?

This is more of math/physics questions. Suppose you use Ex,Ey as sources respectively, you get Sx and Sy. If you use Ex+jEy as the circular polarization, the result will be Sx+jSy. Please verify.
You may need to normalize the result with sqrt(2)/2.
