Abstract

For an efficient calculation of scattering matrix of planar transmission line with step discontinuity. Mode Matching Method combined with Vector Finite Element Method is adopted. Calculating effective widths are replaced with their respective equivalent planar waveguide corresponding to the microstrip width, Propagation Constant is calculated from the Vector finite element. Mode matching method is used for deriving scattering parameters.
