A clever way to simulate numerical matched loads is presented and applied in the mathematical framework of the moment method. This approach presents a lot of advantages with regard to other numerical matched load simulations, and could be used whateier the shape of the planar circuit without the help of the characteristic impedance concept. Results show that very good efficiency is obtained for the reflection coefficient of such matched loads. Typical results are exhibited for S‐parameter determination of multipart microstrip circuits. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
