An Evaluation of Coplanar Line for Application in Microwave Integrated Circuitry

Abstract

A general study of conductor backed coplanar waveguide is presented. The impedance (Z0) and effective dielectric constant of conductor-backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW) have been calculated by using a variational method and the boundary point matching method. In this present work only the TEM dominant low frequency propagation mode of coplanar line has been considered. Experimental facilities are vector network analyzer (HP8409) and bench-instrument measurements.
