Spectral-Domain Analysis of Scattering from E-Plane Circuit Elements

The spectral-domain method is used for analysis of the scattering characteristics of E-plane circuit components such as nontouching E-plane fins. The method deals with inhomogeneous algebraic equations instead of integral equations. It provides a number of attractive features. Numerical results have been compared with those reported in the literature for special cases. Several data items useful for E-plane configurations are included.
