Abstract

A new formulation of the Wave Concept Iterative Process (WCIP) method is presented in this work. This approach uses an analysis with the longitudinal components instead of the transverse components. This approach includes decomposing the transverse TM modes into two longitudinal terms: the TM and TEM modes. This approach is applied to model a Vertical Interconnect Access VIA hole. The current density behavior is studied in the two cases with and without VIA hole. Also this method is used to study a SIW slot antenna. Compared to those obtained by available published data, our results show that the proposed method gives convincing results.
