Abstract

An algorithm for the computer aided analysis of multiple beam forming networks using the contour integral approach has been proposed. A computer program has been developed in FORTRAN-77 under UNIX operating system to design and analyse the network. Results of the analysis namely, reflection coefficients, coupling coefficients and radiation patterns have been compared with the experimentally reported work. It has been found the both the results are in close agreement. The proposed approach can be extended to analyse any arbitrary shaped planar circuit.
