Coplanar waveguides are an alternative to the more common stripline and
microstripline waveguides. They have applications in wireless communications, intelligent
vehicle highway systems, cellular and personal communication services and in low earth orbit
satellite communications among others. This will be the first book devoted entirely to the
theory and applications of coplanar waveguides, which are becoming important as an alternative
to the more common stripline and microstripline waveguides.
