摘要

The closed form expressions for calculating the quasistatic parameters of a rectangular shielded multilayer coupled coplanar waveguide (RSMCCPW) are presented. Expressions of the odd- and even-mode characteristic impedances, which can provide accurate (aid fast calculations, are derived by using conformal-mapping techniques. The numerical results are obtained and compared with those available in the literature for similar unshielded structures. Good agreement between the results is observed.
