|
Manual (the default), to specify some search criteria manually. See Manual Mode Search Settings below.
|
•
|
Region, to define a mode search region in a complex plane. See Mode Search Region Settings below.
|
•
|
All (filled matrix), to search for all modes. This option is only applicable for small mode analysis problems. See All (Filled Matrix) Settings below.
|
•
|
Select Closest in absolute value (the default value) to search for modes that are closest to the shift value when measuring the distance as an absolute value.
|
•
|
Select Larger real part to search for modes with a larger real part than the shift value.
|
•
|
Select Smaller real part to search for modes with a smaller real part than the shift value.
|
•
|
Select Larger imaginary part to search for modes with a larger imaginary part than the shift value.
|
•
|
Select Smaller imaginary part to search for modes with a smaller imaginary part than the shift value.

•
|
Solution to use a solution as a linearization point.
|
•
|
Any other available solution to use it as a linearization point. It can be the current solution in the sequence, or a solution from another sequence, or a solution that was stored with the Solution Store node. You select a stored solution by changing Use to the name of the stored solution. Choose a solution using the Selection list (see Values of Dependent Variables under Common Study Step Settings).

The Boundary Mode Analysis study step stores the frequency fref and propagation constant βref for which it was run. For a TE, TM, or TEM mode, the propagation constant β for an arbitrary frequency f is given by

The Include geometric nonlinearity check box, Mesh Selection, and Study Extensions are described in Common Study Step Settings. There is also detailed information in the Physics and Variables Selection and Values of Dependent Variables sections.
