ABSTRACT:
The characteristic impedance of a planar microstrip or stripline for transmitting signals along a transmission line in the TEM mode is matched by way of a tapered shunt which terminates the line in a dc short circuit to ground. The tapered shunt or termination wraps around the edge of the insulating substrate and electrically connects the microstrip to the ground plane. The geometry of the tapered shunt is incrementally adjusted by means of a series of steps to produce a termination having a selected impedance.
