Parametric synthesis of meander slow-wave system with additional shields

The algorithm of parametric synthesis of meander slow-wave system with additional shields is presented in this paper. The influence of main constructive parameters of meander slow-wave system with additional shields on its electrical characteristics was evaluated in order to achieve the optimal results of the synthesis. Verification of the algorithm of parametric synthesis of meander slow-wave system with additional shields was carried out using four different models of meander slow-wave system with additional shields grounded in different positions. Sonnet® software package which is based on the method of moments has been used during the investigation.
