The Peripheral or Edge-Guidedmodeson the Inhomogeneously and Homogeneously Ferrite Loadedstripline

The results of a rigorously formulated solution of the edge-guided mode on inhomogeneouslyand homogeneously ferrite loaded stripline are presented. The assumption that the width of the stripline is sufficiently large so that interaction between the edges may be neglected, has been invoked. In addition, it is assumed that the central strip conductor is located centrally between the ground plane and the shielding plate. This high degree of symmetry leads to a canonial geometry where we have a groundplane supporting a substrate of ferrite (x>o) and dielectric (x o.
