The electrodynamic properties of a symmetric slot line with a dielectric insert are investigated. A numerical analysis of the transmission line is performed using the finite element method. The dispersion matrix elements of the transmission line are presented. It is shown that the model of a symmetric slot line with a dielectric insert can extend the operating frequency band more than 2 times.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
