Abstract
The method of lines is extended to calculate waveguide structures with finite metallization thickness. The normally used range of metallization thickness is not a limit for the method. Particularly when calculating small or moderate thicknesses, it is possible to derive the dispersion constant with only one computed result. When using the optimal edge parameter, P/sub opt/, for that computation, the deviation from the exact dispersion constant is less than 0.5%. The advantage of the method of lines is that only small line numbers are necessary. Hence, the computing time is very small. >
