Dear Sir,

Can I simulate a situation in 2D with TE polarization using magnetic dipole? Till now I have observed that if I use a magnetic dipole in a 2D scenario, it is simulating but no response at all is coming.

Regards,
Shuvodip Majumdar

Dear Sir,

In continuation to my last post, I want to also say that I actually want to simulate a situation where one dimension is infinite. Practically, somewhat around 20 X lambda will be enough for me. Please suggest how may I get a faithful result for TE polarization.

Dear Shuvodip,

gprMax supports the full 3D solution of Maxwell's equations using FDTD (TEM mode), and also 2D Transverse Magnetic (TM) mode. There is currently no 2D Transverse Electric (TE) mode, primarily because it is not particularly useful for GPR modelling. See our docs - http://docs.gprmax.com/en/latest/gprmodelling.html#basic-concepts

Kind regards,

Craig
