Abstract :
The adaption of Mode Matching Techniques (MMTs) for an E-plane double-layer discontinuity is presented. The bottom layer is realized in substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and the top layer in conventional waveguide technology. The calculations are validated by comparison with data from commercial field solvers. The verification shows a good match and qualifies the MMT routine as a suitable method to prototype magnetically coupled, double layer, mixed technology filters.
