Abstract
This paper deals with a microwave microstrip line that is terminated by a laser illumination, which alters the behavior of this microwave device. The first result is the numerical simulation of the microstrip line ended by a photoinduced load with the finite element method (FEM) and with hexahedral edge elements. The main difficulties of this kind of simulation remains in the fact that we deal with an open structure and that the photoinduced load is complex and inhomogeneous
