Additional information

This paper has established a thorough theoretical understanding of the mechanisms of distributed PIM production in finite lengths of printed lines. The work has led to the predictive PIM models which enabled the first explanations of reverse PIM generation effect in reflection-free (perfectly matched) lines and PIM growth with the line length, both confirmed experimentally. The work performed under EPSRC grant EP/C00065X/01 and in cooperation with the major PCB manufacturer Taconic ADD has laid a foundation for comprehensive studies of PIM phenomena in RF front ends and led to RAEng/EPSRC Research Fellowship, Huawei and FP7 Marie Curie grants.
