5.6     Generation of circular polarisation

QuickWave enables generation of circularly polarised wave. This is done by introducing two identical exciting ports, with perpendicular exciting components and 90° phase shift (delay), at the same position. This feature is available for typical transmission line ports and also for free space incident wave with the use of Plane Wave Boxes.

The examples of application of this feature are discussed in User Guide 3D: Heating in circular waveguide with circular polarisation and User Guide 3D: More plane wave examples-application of vector displays of fields.
