Abstract :
This paper presents a full-wave analysis of three edge-guided mode microstrip isolator structures. Galerkin´s technique in the spectral domain is used to calculate the insertion loss and the isolation of the structures. The paper presents figures of merit of different multilayer structures. A multilayer structure resulted in increased isolation and lower insertion loss
