Abstract :
In high order patch filters more than one patch element may be used. Analyzing these circuits with a regular numerical method, such as the moment method or finite element method, is very slow and also do not have enough accuracy needed for high Q filters. A novel method is presented for fast and accurate analysis of high Q and high order filters. This paper concentrates on the modeling of coupling between patches.
