Abstract

This chapter presents a new theoretical analysis of multilayered anisotropic microwave circuits based on a modified spectral-domain approach (SDA). The number of conducting strips/slots located on several interfaces of dielectric layers can be arbitrary set. The numerical solutions obtained by this technique are discussed and compared with published data. Furthermore, original configurations based on three-level metallized couplers were computed and validated using neural network models. The efficiency of the proposed technique is demonstrated through the determination of dispersion characteristics such as effective dielectric constant, normalized phase velocity, and characteristic impedance.
