Results and Discussion<br />

Figure 2-3 shows the electric field norm for the optimal position of the 45-degree wall.<br />

It is flat along the direction of propagation which indicates that there is no reflected<br />

wave within the structure. By inspecting S 11 (−75 dB), this is confirmed.<br />

Figure 2-3: Electric field norm plot for the optimized position of the 45-degree wall.<br />

In the Ref. 1, no optimization is performed but the sensitivities for the S-parameters<br />

with respect to the position of the 45-degree wall, calculated using the self-adjoint<br />

method as well as using a finite difference approximation, are presented. The<br />

corresponding sensitivities for the real and imaginary parts of S 11 calculated by this<br />
