Abstract :
Closed-form expressions for the capacitances of the equivalent p-network of a gap in the central strip of a cylindrical coplanar waveguide (CCPW) with asymmetric slot widths are derived using the partial capacitance approach and conformal mapping method (CMM). Good agreement is observed between the CMM results and those obtained using the finite difference time domain technique
