Abstract
Leakage phenomena possible in conductor-backed slotlines were investigated through an analysis of coupled lines. Coupling between two slotlines with a finite width of conductor backing was examined. The propagation constants obtained for two modes of the coupled slotline confirm that coupling is caused by leakage through the conductor backing.<>
