Abstract: | The accurate measurement of small discontinuities in microstrip by conventional means is limited by the imperfections of the microstrip to coaxial transition. By using a resonant technique where such imperfections cause only 2nd-order errors, the equivalent circuit of microstrip discontinuities can be measured. To demonstrate the method, a 90° corner, with and without a chamfer, has been measured. |
