We seem to have missed your post somehow. If you just want to look at the total transmission, then you can use either of them as both of them can give you the total transmission. But I would recommend you to use a x-normal DFT monitor as ports usually have larger memory requirements. The ports are combination of mode source, DFT monitor and mode expansion monitor, so if you want to see how much of the total power is coupling into a specific forward\/backward propagating mode, then you can use Ports.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yes, that is correct, if there is some leakage into the cladding and the monitor is large enough to cover the cladding as well, then it would account for the transmission there.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;br&gt;Amrita&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-319276","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.10 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Hi Fateme,I apologize for the late reply.
