Computer-aided design models for broadside-coupled striplines and millimeter-wave suspended substrate microstrip lines

Models were derived from the results of conformal transformation on homogeneous stripline, the equivalence of the odd-mode with the quasi-TEM mode of covered microstrip line, and logarithmic regression of spectral-domain results. Effects of finite strip thickness have been taken into account. These models are fully compatible with the needs and trends of computer-aided and programmable-calculator-aided microwave and millimeter-wave integrated circuit design.<
