Hybrid of Moment Method and Mode Matching Technique for Full-Wave Analysis of SIW CircuitsAbstract
In this paper, a full wave analysis of substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structures is presented based on the moment method in combination with the mode matching technique. Initially, input and output post pairs are terminated with two waveguide sections. Then waveguide width, as an unknown variable, is adjusted to obtain minimum reflection from the SIW. Field distribution in the structure and current density on posts as well as dispersion characteristic of the SIW are investigated. Also, by taking the advantage of the moment method, analysis of the structures with longitudinal discontinuity along the wave propagation direction is offered. Furthermore, versatile instances are analyzed and compared with experimental values, results from high frequency structure simulator (HFSS), and numerical methods in recent literature. Good agreement between the results verifies the accuracy of the hybrid method.
