Planar multilayer structure analysis: an educational approach

This paper discusses how symbolic computation combined with a circuit model can be used for analyzing planar multilayer structures, in a manner suitable for educational approach. Working in the Fourier domain, expressions for the transversal spectral Green’s functions are evaluated in compact, closed form using the symbolic computation capability of the Mathematica package. Printed antennas were analyzed through the method of moments. Further validation was achieved with the IE3D and HFSS packages.
