Resumos Cadastrados

Resumo Inglês:

This paper discusses how symbolic computation combined
with a circuit model can be used for analyzing planar multilayer
structures, in a manner suitable for educational approach. Working in
the Fourier domain, expressions for the transversal spectral Green’s
functions are evaluated in compact, closed form using the symbolic
computation capability of the Mathematica package. Printed antennas
were analyzed through the method of moments. Further validation
was achieved with the IE3D and HFSS packages.
