RF Output Data#

Monitor Data#

tidy3d.rf.MicrowaveModeData

Data associated with a ModeMonitor for microwave and RF applications: modal amplitudes, propagation indices, mode profiles, and transmission line data.

tidy3d.rf.MicrowaveModeSolverData

Data associated with a ModeSolverMonitor for microwave and RF applications: scalar components of E and H fields plus characteristic impedance data.

tidy3d.rf.DirectivityData

Data associated with a DirectivityMonitor.

tidy3d.rf.AntennaMetricsData

Data representing the main parameters and figures of merit for antennas.

  • MicrowaveModeData: Mode amplitudes with transmission line parameters (Z0, voltage, current) and propagation characteristics (Ξ³, Ξ±, Ξ²).

  • MicrowaveModeSolverData: Complete 2D mode field profiles with transmission line parameters and mode classification.

  • DirectivityData: Far-field radiation patterns including directivity and radiated power.

  • AntennaMetricsData: Antenna figures of merit including gain, radiation efficiency, reflection efficiency, and realized gain.

Base Classes

MicrowaveModeDataBase

Base class for microwave mode data that extends standard mode data with RF/microwave features.

Note

MicrowaveModeDataBase is a base class providing shared properties and methods for microwave mode data. The base class documentation is provided to help users discover inherited properties.
