dispersion relations/frequency dependence

I am trying to use comsol to model an RF system where an antenna is being driven at multiple very different (order of magnitude) frequencies, and I want the materials to have a realistic dispersion relation. What's the best way to do this? I've been working in the transient domain (actually the easiest way to do this problem, but I can move to frequency space with an FFT of my driving signal) and it really seems like there isn't a way to specify the impulse response or whatever, and if done with a harmonic analysis I don't know how to specify the set of frequencies in my signal.
If I wanted to, is there a way to solve the same model at different frequencies and superimpose the results? If everything is linear then this would work, but it's very far from ideal.
and, to commit a heresy: if COMSOL can't do this, does anybody know a package that can?
thanks!
Mike

Hey everybody,

hei, Mike
did you figure out the problem?
for frequencies, goto physics--scalar variables--nu_rfwe.
i am not sure how to set a dispersion of material properties (i guess here you mean dielectric properties), coz i am a newbie too.
for simulation, Ansoft and CST have some, but i am not sure if they can do a better job than Comsol in your application
