Abstract

Finite-difference analysis of transmission lines including lossy materials and radiation effects leads to a complex eigenvalue problem. A method is presented which preserves sparseness and delivers only the small number of interesting modes out of the complete spectrum. The propagation constants are found solving a sequence of eigenvalue problems of modified matrices with the aid of the shift-and-invert mode of the Arnoldi method. In an additional step non physical Perfectly Matched Layer modes are eliminated.
