Abstract :
Dispersion characteristics of the strip transmission line on a circular dielectric rod are investigated based on a full-wave analysis using the eigenfunction-weighted boundary integral equation method. Numerical results clearly demonstrate the usefulness of this method in finding propagation properties of the dominant mode and high-order modes, and variation of parameters with respect to the radius of the rod and the angle occupied by the strip conductor for a wide frequency range.<>
