Abstract

A novel equivalent circuit model for step discontinuities in rectangular waveguides is presented. The equivalent circuit model is based on a modal analysis and enables full-wave characterization of the step-discontinuity by circuit analysis on commercial simulators. The equivalent circuit model of the H-plane step has been implemented on Libra to demonstrate its accuracy. Results of the circuit analysis were found to be in virtually perfect agreement with the conventional mode-matching solution based on incident and reflected wave amplitudes.
