__Hello dear FEKO staff and FEKO user's. Is it possble to account for diffraction on the circular rim of paraboloid reflector using RL-GO solver in last version of FEKO?

    __Ok. More specifically i was concerned, if this option only include diffraction at only edges of rectangle, triangle, cube etc. Or it also allows to account diffraction by curvilinear edge. From your answer, i conclude that option accounts it.

    __Thanks.

    Yes, diffraction from a curvilinear edge is supported.


    For convenience, attached an example of a reflector with spherical mode equivalent source.
