Abstract

A full-wave moment method technique developed for the analysis of quasi-optical systems is used to model finite grid structures. This technique incorporates an electric field dyadic Green´s function for a grid centered between two lenses in free space which is derived by separately considering paraxial and nonparaxial fields. Results for the driving point reflection coefficient of a 3/spl times/3 grid are computed and compared with measurements.
