Propagation Characteristics of Shielded Coplanar Waveguides

차폐된 코플래너 도파로의 전송특성

The propagation characteristics of the symmetric and the asymmetric shielded coplanar waveguide with finite metallization thickness is analyzed by boundary integral method employing the equivalence principle. Since the Green's function and the basis functions are composed of sinusoidal functions, the integration in Galerkin's method is solved analytically. The propagation constants of the fundamental and the first higher order mode are obtained and the effects of strip thickness, substrate permittivity, and the asymmetry of the structure are calculated.
