Quasi‐analytical static solution for the generalized boxed coplanar waveguide
TLDR
A quasi-analytical method for computing the quasi-static-TEM parameters of the generalized coplanar waveguide (GCPW) is reported in this article, where the structure is assumed to be enclosed in a rectangular frame and embedded in a layered medium.Abstract:
A quasi-analytical method for computing the quasi-static-TEM parameters of the generalized coplanar waveguide (GCPW) is reported. The structure is assumed to be enclosed in a rectangular frame and embedded in a layered medium. Essentially, the method is an analytically enhanced spectral domain formulation. Its application leads to virtually exact results in very short CPU times, making it suitable for CAD purposes. Although the method is somewhat more time consuming than conformal mapping approaches, it is a useful alternative because of its exactness and ability to deal with multilayer structures. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.read more

Systematic computation of the modal spectrum of boxed microstrip, finline, and coplanar waveguides via an efficient SDA
TL;DR: In this article, the complete modal spectrum of multilayer boxed planar lines is obtained by computing the zeros of a properly built analytic complex function, which is the product of two factors: the determinant function provided by spectral domain-Galerkin analysis (SDA) and a function which cancels out the poles of the former factor without introducing additional poles nor zeros.
