An electromagnetic time-harmonic analysis of shielded microstrip circuits
Abstract
A Galerkin analysis of microstrip circuits of arbitrary planar geometry enclosed in a rectangular conducting box is described. The technique entails a time-harmonic electromagnetic analysis evaluating all fields and surface currents. This analysis is suitable for the accurate verification of microstrip designs prior to fabrication. A computer program implementing the analysis has been written in Pascal on a personal computer. Agreement with measurements of several microstrip structures suggests a high degree of accuracy.
