A Novel Transmission Line Characterization Based on Measurement Data Reconfirmation

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In the high-frequency characterizations of planar circuit components, measurement data may not be physical. It is mainly due to resonance effects concerned with discontinuities which are inevitable for a planar component characterization. In this paper, a novel accurate transmission line characterization method is presented that excludes the resonance effects based on measurement data reconfirmation. For the physically obvious data acquisition near the resonance frequencies of a transmission line, the additional lines with different line lengths are fabricated on the same substrate. The test transmission lines are characterized by using vector network analyzer (VNA) in 100 MHz to 26.5 GHz. It is shown that an accurate transmission line characterization can be achieved with the proposed measurement data reconfirmation technique.
