Abstract :
A new ultra-wideband back-to-back conductor-backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW)-to-CBCPW transition structure is presented and implemented. The design of this transition is based on vertical resonant coupling via a rectangular slot between two stacked CBCPW lines. According to careful design and optimisation, the CBCPW-to-CBCPW transition results show a good performance in terms of bandwidth, which is about 12 GHz
