Abstract :
An optimization procedure for characterizing finline discontinuities has been developed using the generalized scattering matrix formulation for steps in finline technique. The general waveguide representation of a two-taper finline section with a step is investigated first. The scattering matrix representation of the step is deduced from a combined measurement-numerical optimization procedure. Experimental results will verify the feasibility of the method.
