Modeling in the RF, microwave, and optical regimes requires modeling the propagation of electromagnetic waves in and around structures that can be metallic, dielectric, gyromagnetic, or even metamaterials with engineered properties. The RF Module offers you the tools to meet this challenge by including port and scattering boundary conditions, complex valued, spatially varying, anisotropic material models, perfectly matched layers, and the best solvers available. As a result, you can easily model antennas, waveguides, microwave, and optical components.

The RF Module completes the modeling experience by providing S-parameter computation and far-field analysis. Taken together with COMSOL’s unsurpassed ability to couple to other physics, such as electromagnetic RF heating, stress and deformation effects, you have the industry’s leading multiphysics solution for electromagnetic waves.
