Abstract :
The authors examine the performance and optimal selection of a new uniaxial artificial absorber layer for truncating finite element meshes. The absorber is reflectionless at its interface for all incidence angles but in practice a finite layer must be used, and as a result the absorber is no longer reflectionless. In the Letter the authors examine optimal selection of the thickness and dielectric properties of the absorber in the context of a finite element implementation for a shielded microstrip line
