Hybrid-mode modeling of MIC's and MMIC's withe absorbing boundaries

Abstract

The present work concerns the full wave analysis of open planar microwave integrated circuits (MIC's) and monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMIC's) based on absorbing boundary conditions (ABC's), using the method of lines (MoL). The structures to be covered are of great interest in this field, such as, the single micro strip, the edge coupled lines, the broadside-coupled lines, the broadside-edge coupled lines and some other multi-strip wave guiding structures…
