Abstract

In this paper, a full-wave analysis technique of lossy substrate integrated waveguides, based on the dyadic Green's function of the parallel plate waveguide, is presented. The field inside the waveguide is expressed in terms of cylindrical vector wave-functions and the finite conductivity of the top and of the bottom plates, and of the metallic vias are taken into account. Losses into the dielectric substrate are also included. Coaxial ports are considered as sources and self and mutual admittances are evaluated. Cases of practical structure taken from literature are presented showing a very good agreement with the most used commercial software.
