In this work, an original closed-form approximate evaluation is performed for the continuous-spectrum field excited by an electric-current line source in a substrate-superstrate configuration, optimized for leaky-wave radiation. The validity of these results is shown for the near and the far field at different frequencies, including the frequency range in which the leaky wave is physical and the entire transition region through the spectral gap. This new closed-form result shows explicitly the nature of the continuous-spectrum field in the transition region, and provides insight into the nature of the fields on more complicated structures such as microwave integrated circuits.

Abstract
In this work, an original closed-form approximate evaluation is performed for the continuous-spectrum field excited by an electric-current line source in a substrate-superstrate configuration, optimized for leaky-wave radiation. The validity of these results is shown for the near and the far field at different frequencies, including the frequency range in which the leaky wave is physical and the entire transition region through the spectral gap. This new closed-form result shows explicitly the nature of the continuous-spectrum field in the transition region, and provides insight into the nature of the fields on more complicated structures such as microwave integrated circuits.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
