Hi everyone, im new to this group so i hope you
can help me... I've been working with HFSS for
a while now, designing RF coils for MRI. The structure
is pretty simple - a single turn coil with a coax
feed. the feed is blocked by a copper block on its
port end, and the inner coax connects to the coil...
(coil radius=7cm) the problem is that i keep getting
negative real part for my impedance in low freq.
(around 100MHz). Happend to any of you? what's
that supposed to mean in HFSS? thanks in
advance Alex

Greetings Lechko: I am not a HFSS user, but
negative impedances in other simulators often indicate
you are sampling at physical point that is located
at or near a peak in a standing wave on the line.
Constructive interference there can create a voltage
greater than that which is applied. This is an indication
of an impedance mismatch at the sampled frequency.
Or, it could be something else
