We generalize the high-efficiency numerical-analytical method of calculating the eigenmodes of a microstrip line, which was proposed in [1], to multilayer slit structures. The obtained relationships make it possible to allow for the multilayer nature of the medium on the basis of solving the electrodynamic problem for a two-layer structure. The algebraic models of a single line and coupled slit lines in a multilayer dielectric medium are constructed. The matrix elements of the system of linear algebraic equations, which is used to determine the expansion coefficients of the electric field inside the slits in a Chebyshev basis, are converted to rapidly convergent series. The constructed models allow one to use computer simulation to obtain numerical results with high speed and accuracy, regardless of the number of dielectric layers. The presented results of a numerical study of the method convergence confirm high efficiency of the method.
