Abstract

In the first half of this paper, an efficient method to calculate transmission and reflection characteristics of wire-grids consisting of periodic arrays of cylindrical conductors for arbitrary directions of incidence is presented by extending exact theory of wire-grids proposed by Yasumoto et al. In the latter half of this paper, an approximate calculation method for wire-grids with slight random irregularity in their spacings between wires is proposed by treating the irregularity as a small perturbation to the theory for regular grids. A comparison with preliminary measurements for actual wire-grids in millimeter- and submillimeter-wave regions demonstrated that this method is effectively applicable to wire-grids whose irregularity is not too much.
