Difference between source dipole and made dipole

Hello. 

 

I have a basic question.

I'm trying to calculate the scattered field using FEKO. I always the dipole using Source tap in FEKO like in Ex1 and its result is good.  

But I have no idea why there are difference results between source dipole (Ex1) and made electric dipole (Ex2).

There have different result and I don't know the reason. Please let me know the reason. 

Thank you.

    Hi @sangwoo.kang,

     

    the ''Electric dipole' is a Hertzian dipole meaning that it's an ideal dipole. A wire dipole is a real dipole, incl. spatial extends.
