Abstract :
The equivalent capacitances and inductances of matched microstrip bends with arbitrary angle are calculated by the method of moments. Three forms of matching are considered: a one-sided curved transition, a double-sided curved transition and a mitered bend, where the optimum miter percentage is computed for minimized bend VSWR.
