If an object is solved using IE solver, the E and H fields are not available through the standard field reporter. The IE solver is used either in HFSS-IE design or inside FEM design if the object is assigned as IE hybrid Region. The standard fields reported in these case are electric and magnetic surface current densities and charges: J, Jm,Q,and Qm. It is possible to use Maxwell equations to reconstruct values of Electric and magnetic fields on the surfaces if necessary. For example, for metal object solved with IE solver: \u2022Magntic current and charge density are equal to zero: Jm=0, Qm=0 \u2022As we assume E and H fields inside the conductor is 0, from Maxwell equations: \u2022n dot D = Q, where D=\u03b5*E \u2022For metal object in vacuum: E_normal to surface = Q\/\u03b5 _o \u2022n cross H = J \u2022For lossy metal object in vacuum: H_tangential to surface = J, E_tangential can be calculated using surface impedance definition: \u2022E_tangential to surface = Zs*(n cross H_tangential to surface), where Zs is a surface impedance: Zs=(1+j)\/(conductivity*skin_depth) \u2022 Note that for good conductor the surface impedance is very small compared to free space (for copper at 1GHz : (8e-3)*(1+j) Ohm, so the value of E_tangential is expected to be very small compared to E_normal <\/p>\n
