This is an introductory tutorial that shows how to model RF coils using COMSOL. RF coils are important in numerous applications ranging from wireless technology to MRI scanning equipment. This examples demonstrates the different...
This model demonstrates microwave propagation in the transition from an elliptical to a rectangular waveguide. The aim is to keep the energy losses for the operating frequencies at a minimum. In this study, we consider a wave...
Feeding a waveguide from a coaxial cable is a straightforward way to achieve electromagnetic waves inside a waveguide. Due to its small size and circular shape, the cable contributes significantly to the overall size of the problem. It is...
This model considers a patch antenna structure. A patch antenna is composed of two parallel metal plates separated by a dielectric. The dielectric has some losses, and these losses cause the structure to heat up. The objective of this...
This is an introductory tutorial that shows how to model a dipole antenna using the COMSOL RF Module. A dipole antenna is one of the simplest antenna structures, and many radiating structures can be modeled in similar ways to the...
Planar photonic waveguides in silica (SiO2) have a great potential for use in wavelength routing applications. The major problem with these kinds of waveguides is birefringence. Anisotropic refractive indices result in fundamental mode...
Conical antennas are useful for many applications due to their broadband characteristics and relative simplicity. In this example, we study the antenna impedance and radiation pattern as functions of frequency for a monoconical...
Microstrip filters can be fabricated directly on a printed circuit board (PCB) with a microstrip line going from the input to the output. Along the microstrip line there are a number of stubs of certain lengths and widths. The design of...
The transmission of a TE10 wave through a 90 degree bend in a waveguide is modeled.
A bird-cage coil is used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) applications as a receiving antenna. This particular coil would sit around limbs and be used to scan a leg or arm. The COMSOL Multiphysics with RF Module model...
