Abstract: Magnetoinductive waveguides (MIWs) are near-field guiding structures constructed with unit cells of electrically small resonant elements with applications ranging from wireless body area networks to wireless sensing.Previous work has derived the near-field guiding properties when the unit cell consists of either one or two resonant elements.In this work, we expand upon the MIW theory by deriving the dispersive behavior of an MIW when the unit cell consists of three resonant elements.Several simplified relationships are also presented for a variety of common geometric constraints and symmetries.The analytical model is shown to have excellent agreement with simulated results in the passband of the MIW.
