Incorrect reflection coefficient results

Hello all !

As my title suggests, I have been getting wrong reflection coefficient results for the designed antenna. I am using probe feed and CMA. To plot reflection coefficient, I am plotting the voltage source. For the same geometrical parameters, I am getting completely different results in HFSS.

Not sure where I am going wrong. I have attached the model below.

Any help is appreciated !

    You have requested characteristic modes. The reflection coefficient will be plotted in POSTFEKO per mode.

    If you want the input reflection coefficient for all modes (basically without any characteristic mode analysis) then you need to request a StandardConfiguration.

    Below I have solved this version.

    You may need a finer mesh, especially for CM analysis where higher modes cannot be solved and tracked accurately without finer meshing.
