Abstract :
In this paper the Single Layer Reduction (SLR) technique is presented to compute dispersion characteristics of multilayer coplanar waveguide (CPW) with finite conductor thickness. The effective relative permittivity for the multilayer structure is derived from conformal mapping. Then SLR technique is used to convert multilayer CPW structure to an equivalent single layer structure. The dispersion characteristic of equivalent CPW structure is calculated from the closed form expressions.
