TLDR
A detailed experimental investigation has brought to light two important aspects of circuit design with microstrip: first, microstrip has an upper frequency limit and second, it is dispersive.
Abstract
Recently there has been considerable interest in the use of the open microstrip geometry as a transmission line in microwave integrated circuits. This form of propagating structure is applicable to a monolithic approach on a semiconductor substrate as well as to a hybrid approach using a ceramic substrate. In order to choose suitable materials, we have investigated the basic properties of microstrip and its interactions with the substrate. A detailed experimental investigation has brought to light two important aspects of circuit design with microstrip. First, microstrip has an upper frequency limit and second, it is dispersive.

Microstrip lines for microwave integrated circuits

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the impedance and attenuation measurements performed on microstrips, which are useful for the microwave and millimeter wave hybrid integrated circuits required for solid-state radio systems because of their simplicity and planar structure.

Full-Wave Analysis of Microstrip Open-End and Gap Discontinuities

TL;DR: In this paper, the exact Green's function of the grounded dielectric slab is used in a moment method procedure, so surface waves as well as space-wave radiation are included.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microstrip Dispersion Model

TL;DR: The assumption that the quasi-TEM mode on microstrip is primarily a single longitudinal-section electric (LSE) mode leads to a transmission line model whose dispersion behavior can be analyzed and related to that of microstrip as mentioned in this paper.

Transmission-Line Properties of Parallel Strips Separated by a Dielectric Sheet

TL;DR: In this article, the shape ratio and the effective filling fraction of a sheet of dielectric material are computed in terms of exponential and hyperbolic functions, respectively, for a transmission line made of a symmetrical pair of strip conductors.

The excitation of plane surface waves

TL;DR: In this paper, a physical interpretation of the analysis is suggested which explains the mechanism of launching in terms of a resonance phenomenon allied to that which arises when a piston attenuator is terminated by a reactance equal and opposite to its own (reactive) characteristic impedance.

Surface‐Wave Propagation Over a Coated Plane Conductor

TL;DR: In this paper, a TM wave propagated parallel to the surface of a plane conductor coated with a thin layer of dielectric is assumed to be similar to the wave that propagates over a wire of circular cross section, discussed by Goubau in the references.
