Abstract
Analytical closed-form expressions for the quasi-TEM parameters for asymmetrical coplanar strip lines (ACPS) with finite boundary substrate are obtained using conformal mapping method. The formulations are CAD-oriented purpose. The calculated results are compared with those obtained for a corresponding ACPS assumed that the substrate is infinite. The analyses are useful for MMIC's designs and transmission line theory.
