Interesting - effect background material extent in CST MWS

Hi all,
I am simulating a normal CPW ( No Ground plane ) in CST MWS. I am using open boundaries in all directions. Port size is enough to accomodate the field patter ( 5* height and 3*( Width_center_conductor + 2* Gap)). I get the designed line impedance of 92 Ohm. I notice a curious thing. Background matrerial is "Normal" type with Epsilonr=1 and Mur=1. If I set the backgrouind material -> Surrounding space->Lower Z and upper Z to say 3 mm each. I get the line impedance as 82 Ohm. Again changing these distances alters the line impedance. However such a thing does not happen ( too small variations to note) for a microstrip. How does this surrounding space affect the soultion of wave port in MWS for a CPW ? Thanks for listerning.

Interesting.

May be it is the definiton of the line impedance.
CST calculates Zline from power and current, this differs from
the voltage, current calculation.
The power takes all E and H vectors into account, whereas the UI-Definition is based on a E-integration from one metal to the other and a integration of H in a surrounding curve of a metal.
