Strategies for Modeling the Interaction of Devices, Circuits and Fields
Abstract
Many of the microwave engineering developments have come about when the electromagnetic environment has been transformed into a circuit abstraction. Three particular developments exemplify this modeling procedure. The rest of these is the modeling work undertaken for radar development during the Second World War: Marcuvitz's book showed how discontinuities in waveguide could be modeled by lumped element equivalents. The second work, Collin's Foundations of Microwave Engineering book, presented a formalism for treating distributed structures as circuit elements. A third example is the pioneering work of Eisenhart and Khan which presented an approach to modeling waveguide-based structures as circuit elements. In this work it was shown that quite sophisticated and accurate models could be developed for three-dimensional waveguide systems.
