Abstract :
A moment method analysis of planar circuits in a layered medium is developed. The Green´s functions of a two-layer grounded medium are used in order to take into account the effect of the surface wave, coupling, and radiation. Interpolation techniques are used to increase computational efficiency. The embedded conductors are modeled with triangular patches. Results for several configurations, including direct and proximity coupled radiators, are in good agreement with measurements and other calculations
