Microstrip, Stripline,CPW,and SIW Design

microstrip , stripline , and CPW Design Iulian Rosu, YO3 DAC / VA3 IUL, In the first years of microwave development the Rectangular Waveguide become the dominant waveguide structure largely because high-quality components could be designed using it. One of the main issues was its narrow bandwidth due to the cut-off frequency characteristic. Later, researchers try to find components that could provide greater bandwidth and possible miniaturization, and therefore they examined other waveguide types. Ridge Waveguide offered a step in that direction, having one or more longitudinal internal ridges that serve primarily to increase transmission bandwidth by lowering the cut-off frequency. Coaxial Line was very suitable, since it possessed a dominant mode with zero cut-off frequency, providing two important characteristics: very wide bandwidth, and the capability of miniaturization.

Stripline Design Stripline transmission line requires three layers of conductors where the internal conductor is commonly called the “hot conductor,” while the other two, always connected at signal ground, are called “cold” or “ground” conductors. The hot conductor is embedded in a homogeneous and isotropic dielectric, of dielectric
