Abstract
By using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method (FDTD), several E-plane Forked T-junctions are analyzed. Good agreement between the calculation and the experimental results given by [5][11] is found. The scattering parameters of these T-junctions are obtained by applying the Fast-Fourier Transform method (FFT).
