Abstract
A unified variational formulation for microwave planar transmission li nes and lumped-element impedances is developed and applied to an isola ted stripline power splitter. Scattering parameters are calculated via the transfinite-element method and the numerical results are corrobor ated by three-port experimental measurements. The microwave impedance of a thin-film isolation resistor is separately measured and included in the model.
