  • Abstract
    A procedure is described for calculating the characteristics of propagating modes in dielectric sheets. Specifically, if a required wavelength of the guided wave is given, the appropriate free space wavelength and thickness of the dielectric sheet can be readily obtained, and these variables are related through a single parameter. The methods used are those of geometric optics and transmission line analogies.
