Moment method analysis of the moreno directional coupler

모멘트법을 이용한 moreno 방향성 결합기 해석

This paper presents a full-wave, moment method analysis of a Moreno directional coupler with tow crossed-slots between two crossed rectangular waveguides. the overall structure is divided into several rectangular waveguides and cavities by the use of the equivalence principle to the complex slot regions. this enables a simple and efficient analysis involving the well-known retangular waveguide/cavity Green's functions. For a numerically efficient simulation, the roof-top basis expansion and line testing is used and an acceleration technique is applied to the series summation in the Green's functions. The numerical results are compared with the measurements to verify the correctness of the present analysis.
