Millimeter-Wave Fin-Line Characteristics

A CAD Model for the Inductive Strip in Finline

“…As expected, hand cutting of the fin structure resulted in dimensions which were in error by as much as 2 mils in the worst case. The dimensions of the actual fin structure were measured and the filter simulation was modified accordingly.…”

“…The first complete analysis of finline using the spectral domain method was published by Knorr and Shayda in 1980 [2].…”

CAD Models for Inductive Strips in Homogeneous Finline: The Methodology

“…The first complete frequency dependent analysis of finline was published by Knorr and Shayda in 1980 [3].…”

“…One is WR(112) which has b/a = 0.44 3 It should be noted that the last choice, b/a = 0.6, is probably not practical as it reduces the bandwidth relative to that obtained with WR(28) guide.…”

“…The scattering coefficients predicted by the scaled model 3 were compared to the correctly computed scattering coefficients. 15 Results for the three structures are shown in Figures 15 -17.…”
