3 Design and Simulation of Magic Tee
Software Used
Ansys HFSS 15.0
Simulation Steps
1. Set unit to 'in'.
2. Draw box with XSize = 1 in, YSize = 0.42 in, ZSize = 0.17 in.
3. Add excitations to both ends of waveguide.
4. Add solution setup with solution frequency = 25 GHz.
5. Add interpolating sweep with start frequency = 10 GHz, stop frequency = 35 GHz.
6. Plot graphs for β vs. frequency and losses.
7. Plot electric field overlays.
D Model
Observations
1. Graph between β and frequency
Analysis
1. For the solution frequency applied, first two modes of signal will be seen (frequencies 14
GHz and 28 GHz).

EXPERIMENT 2
Objective
To design and simulate an E-plane tee.
Software Used
Ansys HFSS 15.0
Parameters
Solution frequency = 10 GHz
For an arm,
x = 60 mm
a = 22.86 mm
b = 10.16 mm
Simulation Steps
1. Set unit to 'mm'.
2. Draw first arm using 'box' tool with above specifications. Duplicate newly-constructed box
around axes on both sides. To complete structure, unite all three boxes.
3. Add 'perfect E' boundary to the structure.
4. Add excitations to all three ports.
5. Add solution setup with solution frequency = 10 GHz.
6. Add interpolating sweep with start frequency = 5 GHz, stop frequency = 15 GHz.
7. Plot graph for insertion losses.
8. Plot electric field overlays.

Observations
1. Insertion loss graph (dB(s31)
Analysis
1. Graphs and overlays suggest that E-plane tee is able to divide incoming electric field
from Port 3 in opposite phase.
