研究目的
To extend the discrete mode matching (DMM) method to analyze multilayered elliptical fibers or transmission lines with elliptical dielectric layers.
研究成果
The DMM method with the elliptical coordinate system has been discussed, and the derivation of the hybrid matrix elements for anisotropic elliptical dielectric layers has been done. The formulation has been validated well with the quasi-cylindrical approach. The elliptical fibers have been analyzed with good agreement with the commercial software and open literature.
研究不足
The paper does not explicitly mention limitations, but the complexity of analyzing multilayered elliptical fibers with anisotropic dielectric layers could be a potential challenge.
