ABSTRACT

This chapter will cover the most important stripline devices and will complete the study begun in Chapter 7 regarding µstrip devices. All the theory we have developed in that chapter assumed, whenever possible, to approximate the “qTEM” propagation mode in µstrip with a pure “TEM.” Since striplines are instead t.l.s that can be assumed to propagate a real “TEM” wave, all the theory developed in Chapter 7 applies to the present case as well.
