On the analysis of capacitive rectangular waveguide discontinuities close to arbitrarily shaped conducting and dielectric posts

In this work, we propose an integral equation technique for the efficient analysis of capacitive step discontinuities in rectangular waveguides. The method allows for the inclusion of a number of arbitrarily shaped posts in the vicinity of the step discontinuity. The posts can be both metallic or co...
