Applications
Transmission lines
For efficient point-to-point transmission, the source energy must be guided. Prior
to 1965, nearly all microwave equipment utilized coaxial and waveguide circuits.
• Coaxial line • Waveguide
- High bandwidth - High power handling capability
- Convenient for test; - Low loss
- Not suitable for - Bulky and expensive

Why planar transmission lines
–Basic structure: one dielectric substrate with
conducting metals on both or either sides
• Main advantages
– simple and inexpensive to fabricate
by printed circuit techniques Hybrid MIC
–easy integration with other passive
and active devices for microwave
integrated circuit (MIC) and
Monolithic microwave integrated
circuit (MMIC)
–small size & light weight
• Major disadvantages
–low efficiency & low power

KVL and KCL (re-visited)
Kirchhoff’s voltage law (KVL): The principle of conservation of energy implies that
the directed sum of the electrical potential differences (voltage) around any closed circuit
is zero.

Kirchhoff’s voltage law: v( z , t ) − Rzi ( z , t ) − Lz − v( z + z , t ) = 0
