Abstract
In this work, the coupled mode theory is formulated to analyze distributed periodic structures for microstrip lines. After it, several reasonable approximations are introduced giving rise to analytical solutions for the problem. The obtained results, both numerical and analytical, are checked against measurements showing very good agreement. The proposed method is very attractive for the study of these devices since it avoids the time-consuming full-wave electromagnetic simulations customarily employed and provides analytical solutions that are very useful for analysis and synthesis purposes.Keywords
