Selecting Sampling Interval in the Improved Spectral Domain Method to Simulate Microstrip Circuits
Keywords:
Microstrip circuits, sampling interval, spectral domain methodAbstract
In this paper, we investigate the spectral method that calculates the S-parameters for microstrip circuits and antennas. A sampling interval selection criterion is proposed. The scheme for low-loss cases is specially discussed. Several examples are employed to demonstrate the engineering applications of the spectral domain method and its results are compared with previously published and measured results.
