Abstract :
Arbitrarily shaped one-port and in-line two-port discontinuities in any quasiplanar configuration can be analyzed by this one-step method. Using the hybrid homogeneous conditions, this approach simplifies the calculation, with Ψe and Ψh being discretized only in and near the discontinuity regions. Illustrative examples of S-parameter calculation are given. Computed results are compared with measured data and with the published results of other authors
