Modelling the Dispersion in a Suspended Microstripline

Abstract
Dispersion in an open suspended microstripline is modelled. New frequency-dependent equations for the effective dielectric constant are reported. The equations are derived for four commonly used substrates (namely RT-Duroid, Fused Quartz, Alumina, and Gallium Arsenide) and reproduce the exact fullwave data within +-2 percent (+-1 percent for most cases).
