Abstract

AbstractIn this contribution we present the method of lines for the analysis of the planar passive structures and planar transmission lines that are widely used in microwave and millimeter‐wave integrated circuits.The method of partial discretization or method of lines is a well‐established technique for the analysis of different microwave structures. The method of lines is regarded as a special finite‐difference method but is more effective with respect to accuracy and computational time than is the regular finite‐difference method. It basically involves discretizing a given differential equation in one or two dimensions while using an analytical solution in the remaining direction. The method of lines has the merits of both the finite‐difference method and the analytical method; it does not yield spurious modes, nor does it have the problem of “relative convergence.”
