    Hi tejaswi

     

    Can you please clarify what you mean by 'adding a source to a result' in POSTFEKO? What are you trying to do?

     

    From your photo, it seems that you have a looped plane wave source in your model. You can add a plane wave source to the 3D view, but you cannot access the source data of ideal sources like plane waves (refer to the FEKO User Manual section on 'Source Data' for the quantities that are available for the different source types).

     

    Kind regards
    Madelé

    Are you interested in doing a time analysis and you want to define an input time signal (double exponential piecewise pulse)? If this is the case, you have unfortunately run into a current limitation of the software. It is not yet possible to do this through scripting, so you would have to perform the time analysis manually.
