Abstract :
The propagation characteristics of a microstrip line in an inhomogeneous medium with an inclined ground plane are analysed using the method of lines. The numerical results of quasistatic, as well as frequency dependent propagation, characteristics for a typical microstrip line on an inclined plane are presented
