Abstract
A simple method for creating low impedance lines using embedded structures is presented. Measured results in a edge embedded CPW architecture show a 50% reduction in length compared to a surface structure. The reduction is due to an increase in capacitance of the embedded design resulting from a larger capacitive area and effective dielectric constant
