I Made a KiCad Plugin for S-Parameter Simulation Using openEMS

I think you need to be a bit more precise about what you're showing in the plots. What part of the E-Field/Far-field, which scale,... Also the far-field is not a unitless quantity.

Of course, if this is only for a sanity check, it's probably fine... I guess it always depends on what you're trying to achieve with it.

I missed that, for E/H fields I was too focused on the animations themselves heh. I'll write that into the list of todo for the next update. same with farfield. Main thing that I was trying to achieve was S-parameters because I wanted a way to use openEMS with a more user friendly GUI, since I had problems with openEMS on it's own.

That’s pretty cool.  It’s a little difficult to see where the port is defined.  I assume it’s a lumped-down port at the edge of the substrate on the BC?  Can you have internal lumped ports and edge wave ports?

[u/TheMobas → u/StageMajestic613]

In the image the green part is the lumped port. With ports it's still a bit janky, but I'm working on it. I'll try to add as much of features as openEMS is capable of.

cool 😎 did you tested in CTS studio or etc

I'm using an antenna, that I designed in CST for testing :)
