Abstract

An integral equation is formulated in the spectral domain for a two slot microstrip filter using the exact Green's function for the grounded dielectric substrate. Using a moment method (MM) procedure, the integral equation has been discretized. The elements of the impedance matrix and the excitation vector are given by two dimensional Sommerfeld-type integrals in closed form. An efficient and accurate numerical integration scheme for computation of the elements is presented. The S parameters obtained from the MM procedure have been found to be in excellent agreement with measurements.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
