Summary :

We present design procedures for using conducting wires in A-sandwich junctions to achieve high transmission performance; bench-test results validate the procedures. The scattering characteristics of the junction are obtained by solving the electric field integral equation of volumetric equivalent currents. The transmission performance is evaluated by subtracting the scattered fields of the same-sized A-sandwich panel in order to offset the effect of edge diffraction. Optimum wire width is determined by examining transmission performance with different arrangements. The designed junction achieves high transmission performance. The measured scattering characteristics of a bench model demonstrate the validity of the presented method.
