Conclusion

The discrete mode matching method has been applied to the analysis of waveguides with noncircular cross sections One application of this new formulation is the analysis of elliptical dielectric waveguides Striplines with an upper elliptical top ground have been analyzed Validation of the DMM results was done with data found in the literature

  • r predicted by commercial software

Good agreement has been verified
