Propagation characteristic analysis and measurement of gaussian pulse signals on the microstrip line

마이크로스트립 선로상 가우시안 펄스신호의 전파특성 해석 및 측정

The propagation properties of Gaussian pulse signals on the microstrip line are investigated by the Kirschning & Jansen's approximated equation to meet the frequency range of a pulse, accuracy, and geometrical requiremtns of the microstrip line. The dispersion of pulse signals is analyzed regarding to the relative permittivity .epsilon.$_{r}$, substrate height h and strip width w of the microstrip line. To verify theoretical results, several samples of 50.OMEGA. microstrip lines are fabricated. And the characteristics of pulse propagation along these lines are simple measured using VNA(Vector Network Analyzer) with time-domain analysis function. A fairly good agreement has been found between the measured pulse waveforms and computer simulations.
