Abstract :
The theory of scattering in junction by posts consisting of a segment of conducting cylinder is developed using a combination of a modified iterative scattering procedure and an orthogonal expansion method. The multimode scattering matrix of the junction is obtained. The change of the post´s configuration, as well as a simple rotation of the post, makes it possible to vary the electrical characteristic. The validity and accuracy of the method is verified by comparing the numerical results with those given in literature, received from finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation and our own measurements. The proposed procedure is efficient and faster than alternative numerical solutions such as the FDTD method used for comparison.
