Characteristics of unsymmetrical broadside-coupled strips in an inhomogeneous dielectric medium
Abstract
A method is proposed for the analysis of unsymmetrical coupled strips on a suspended substrate enclosed by a rectangular shield. The characteristics of the coupled lines are determined in terms of even and odd-mode velocities, coupling coefficients, and even- and odd-mode admittances. The computer program generated can be used as a design tool for obtaining circuit configuration for any given even- and odd-mode admittances. Computed even- and odd-mode velocity and admittance data versus the stripwidth are presented for two sample configurations of a pair of unsymmetrical broadside-coupled lines.
