% [CSX,port] = AddStripLinePort( CSX, prio, portnr, materialname, start, stop, height, dir, evec, varargin )
%
% CSX:          CSX-object created by InitCSX()
% prio:         priority for excitation and probe boxes
% portnr:       (integer) number of the port
% materialname: property for the MSL (created by AddMetal())
% start:        3D start rowvector for port definition
% stop:         3D end rowvector for port definition
% height:       height of the stripline (top and bottom)
% dir:          direction of wave propagation (choices: 0, 1, 2 or 'x','y','z')
% evec:         excitation vector, which defines the direction of the e-field (must be the same as used in AddExcitation())
%
% variable input:
%  varargin:    optional additional excitations options, see also AddExcitation
% 'ExcitePort'  true/false to make the port an active feeding port (default
%               is false)
% 'FeedShift'   shift to port from start by a given distance in drawing
%               units. Default is 0. Only active if 'ExcitePort' is set!
% 'Feed_R'      Specifiy a lumped port resistance. Default is no lumped
%               port resistance --> port has to end in an ABC.
% 'MeasPlaneShift'  Shift the measurement plane from start t a given distance
%               in drawing units. Default is the middle of start/stop.
% 'PortNamePrefix' a prefix to the port name
%
% Important: The mesh has to be already set and defined by DefineRectGrid!
%
% example:
%   CSX = AddMetal( CSX, 'metal' ); %create a PEC called 'metal'
%   start = [0       -width/2  0];
%   stop  = [length  +width/2  0];
%   [CSX,port] = AddStripLinePort( CSX, 0, 1, 'metal', start, stop, height, 'x', ...
%                                   [0 0 -1], 'ExcitePort', true, 'Feed_R', 50 )
% Explanation:
%   - this defines a stripline in x-direction (dir='x')
%     --> the wave travels along the x-direction
%   - with an e-field excitation in -z-direction (evec=[0 0 -1])
%   - the excitation is active and placed at x=start(1) ('ExcitePort', true)
%   - a 50 Ohm lumped port resistance is placed at x=start(1) ('Feed_R', 50)
%   - the width-direction is determined by the cross product of the
%       direction of propagtion (dir='x') and the excitation vector
%       (evec=[0 0 -1]), in this case it is the y-direction
%   - the stripline-metal is created in a xy-plane at a height at z=start(3)
%     --> The upper and lower reference plane (ground) must be defined by
%     the user
