Abstract :
Proximity-coupled open-end microstrip transitions in double-layer planar structures are investigated through the method of moments solution of integral equations. Two types of EMC (electromagnetically coupled) microstrip lines are considered, namely, collinear lines and transverse lines. It is found that these transitions are broadband and provide a wide range of coupling coefficients. The theoretical model for the transverse microstrip transitions is in good agreement with measurements
