Abstract

In order to derive simple and accurate closed-form spatial Greep’s functions for the thick microstrip substrate, an efficient method based on the two-level approach, which circumvents the burdensome steps (i.e., without necessity of extraction of quasi-static contributions and subsequent determination of approximation parameters) in the previous complex image method, is considered in conjunction with the use of the original Prony`s method. The present method is observed to give more accurate results for the evaluation of the Green`s functions over wider frequency range independently of the source-to-field distances than the previous method.
