Abstract :
The radiation from a microstrip Y junction is calculatcd as a function of angle. It is shown that the radiated power increases monotonically with the Y angle, decreases inversely as the dielectric constant of the substrate for large permittivities, and increases as the square of the substrate thickness for thin substrates.
