Abstract :
A method for calculating microstrip discontinuities and T junctions is described, and a waveguide model for the microstrip line is defined. With the help of this model and the use of an orthogonal series expansion, a solution of the above problems is found. Numerical results for the scattering matrices of both the discontinuities and the junctions are given.
