Abstract :
An efficient numerical-analytical approach to the analysis of planar and waveguide three-dimensional structures is presented. To maintain high accuracy and fast convergence of solutions, the technique has been based on Galerkin´s method in the spectral domain. The following has been achieved: (1) formulation of a diagonalized set of integral equations for problems associated with planar structures on multilayered uniaxial dielectric substrates; (2) development and application of complete orthonormalized sets of basis functions accounting the edge conditions in explicit form; and (3) development of efficient numerical quadratures for evaluating infinite singular integrals and improvement of the convergence of the integrals and series in the matrix elements of the algebraic system
