Abstract :
Theoret ca results as given in the literature for the open-ended dielectrically loaded parallel-plate waveguide are used to calculate the input reflection coefficient of open-circuited wide microstrip lines. Numerical computations are in good agreement with measurements for a stripwidth/substrate-height ratio of greater than 3.
