Abstract :
We solve for surface current distribution on microstrip patches of arbitrary shape by the method of moments in conjunction with triangular basis functions and Sommerfeld integrals. The matrix pencil method is used to decompose current along the feed and terminating lines into forward and backward traveling waves, yielding scattering parameters of the device. This approach is tested on various examples and its results are compared to both previously published data and measurements performed in the Microwave Laboratory of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Syracuse University.
