Reflector Antenna with plane wave as a feed

Hallo,

 

I'm trying to design a dual reflector antenna and I'm using as a test a plane wave as a feed system with CADFEKO. But when I try to create mesh the software blocked and in 7% and I should close the whole software. I have a student version of Feko and I'm a new user of it. So maybe there is something missing in my design. In GRASP a plane wave can be used as a feed system and its size and coordinates can be set as well but in Feko I didn't find such a thing yet.

I would appreciate your help so much.

 

Thank you for your attention :)/emoticons/default_smile.png' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' title=':)' width='20' />

    Hello Corny,

     

    Yes, you can model a plane wave excitation in FEKO. You will find it on the Source/Load tab under the ideal source section. If you would like us to check what is happening with your model you can attach it here.

    Hallo Peter,

     

    Thank you very much for your reply. I attached my model here. For the wave plane I didn't know how to change its dimension and z- coordinates.

    I will appreciate your help so much.
