Abstract

In this paper, an asymptotic formula using Newton and Chebyshev interpolations is developed and presented. With this formula, the coupling coefficient between suspended plate antennas with an inclined ground plane is estimated. The accuracy of this formula is validated by full-wave analysis in terms of the simulation results obtained using the Zeland IE3D software package. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
