Abstract :
In a recent paper Getsinger considers some definitions of microstrip characteristic impedance which are usual in literature and which have been analyzed by us in order to show their different behavior with the frequency. In particular, Getsinger states that only one of these definitions is correct, that is, the one based on the wave-impedance concept, while the others must be neglected.
