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.

Contents:

  • Conventional coplanar waveguide.
  • Conductor backed coplanar waveguide.
  • Coplanar waveguide with finite width ground planes.
  • Coplanar waveguide suspended inside a conducting enclosure.
  • Coplanar striplines.
  • Microshield lines and coupled coplanar waveguide.
  • Attenuation characteristics of conventional, micromachined, and superconducting Coplanar waveguides.
  • Coplanar waveguide discontinuities and circuit elements.
  • Coplanar waveguide transitions.
  • Directional couplers, hybrid and magic t.
  • Coplanar waveguide applications.
