This letter presents a dual composite right/left-handed microstrip line loaded with modified complementary split-ring resonators. In this particular case, the well-known resonant particle employed has been capacitively ...
In this paper, a new systematic technique to design manifold-coupled multiplexers in waveguide technology is proposed. The new technique uses generalized low-order electromagnetic (EM) distributed models, which constitute ...

Recently, gap waveguides have been shown as a potential alternative to convenational waveguides in the millimeter-wave band. Until now, groove gap waveguide (GGW) has been studied through direct correspondence with rectangular ...
The traditional cascading of generalised scattering matrices (GSMs) assumes that the modal sets at the connected ports of a cascaded network are strictly equal. This implies a careful selection of the modal polarities, or ...
