Abstract

The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a grounded dielectric slab has numerous applications in printed antenna technology and in the analysis of microwave and millimeter wave integrated circuits. For the accurate analysis of microstrip dipoles and circuits based on the Method of Moments (MoM), a crucial step is precise evaluation of the impedance matrix elements which contain the integration of Sommerfeld-type integrals. The computation of these matrix elements is the most time consuming part in the MoM because the matrix elements are expressed in terms of infinite integrals.
