RF module - Sigle Cell Calculation is available?

Hello,

I successfully calculated transmittance and reflectance of a periodic metamaterial structure, using Floquet boundary conditon on sides and PML subdomains on the bottom and top.

Now I am trying to calculate transmittance and reflectance of a "single cell" of a metamaterial structure. Which boundary condition do I need to use in sides? Scattering boundary condition and matched boundary condition seems not working.

Hi, Could you tell me how you get the transmittance and the reflectance spectrum? Did you integrate the energy flow at the position you want to get the transmattance then divided by the input? In such a way I can only deal with one wavelength at one time, do you have any better method? thanks a lot!
