The author gives a comprehensive description of the mixed potential integral equation
(MPIE) as applied to microstrip structures. This technique uses Green's functions associated …

The frequency-dependent characteristics of the microstrip discontinuities have previously
been analyzed using full-wave approaches. The time-domain finite-difference (TD-FD) …

We introduce a branch-line coupler using discontinuous microstrip lines whose size is
significantly reduced relative to the standard design. We manipulate the reactive …

An experimental study of microstrip bends is described. For right-angle corners, equivalent
circuit parameters covering a wide range of frequencies, linewidths, and permittivities are …

This thoroughly updated leading-edge circuit design resource offers the knowledge needed
to quickly pinpoint transmission problems that can compromise the entire circuit design. This …

Ohne die hauptsächlich in diesem Jahrhundert gewonnenen Errungenschaften der
Hochfrequenztechnik zB auf dem breiten Gebiet der gesamten drahtlosen …

Closed-form expressions for various types of discontinuities in microstrip, viz. open ends,
gaps, step in width, right-angle bend, T-junction and cross-junction, are derived by curve …

A quasi-static equivalent-circuit model of a dumbbell-shaped defected ground structure is
developed. The equivalent-circuit model is derived from the equivalent inductance and …

A theoretical approach for the representation of microstrip discontinuities by equivalent
circuits with frequency-dependent parameters is presented. The model accounts accurately …

A single text that incorporates all of the theoretical principles and practical aspects of planar
transmission line devices-since the early development of striplines, it has been sought by …
