Abstract :
The recently developed MRTD scheme is applied to the solution of printed transmission line problems. Specifically, the field pattern and the characteristic impedance of a membrane stripline is calculated. The results are compared to those obtained by use of the conventional FDTD scheme to indicate considerable savings in memory and computational times.
