Analysis of an inclined microstrip-slot-line transition with the use of the spectral-domain immittance approach

Abstract

A general theory to analyze an inclined microstrip-slot-line transition with the use of the spectral-domain immittance approach with a finite Fourier transform is proposed with a view to developing an equivalent circuit of the transition. The theory is shown to yield more accurate circuit parameters than other previous theories. (C) 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
