TY - JOUR A1 - Guglielmi, Marco AU - Álvarez Melcón , Alejandro T1 - Rigorous, Multimode Equivalent Network Representation of Capacitive Discontinuities Y1 - 1993 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10317/1923 AB - In this paper we present novel, rigorous, multimode equivalent network representations for a variety of zero-thickness capacitive windows and obstacles in a parallel plate waveguide. A key feature of these representations is that the coupling between all of the modes excited is described by a matrix whose elements do not depend on frequency or absolute dimensions. The value of the results presented is that the networks developed can be used to analyze rigorously a large variety of single and coupled planar transmission line structures.
