TITLE: IMPEDANCE MATCHING FOR MICROSTRIP USING PARALLEL OPEN STUB (CLO2,
PLO5)
1.0 AIM
Enable students to design a microstrip and the impedance matching with the simulation needed.
2.0 OUTCOME
At the end of this experiment, students will be able:
1. To constructs microwave microstrip
2. To assembles impedance matching for microstrip using CST Design Suite 2019.
3. To measures the impedance matching using CST Design Suite 2019.

4.0 THEORY:
A microstrip is a type of transmission line that consists of a conductor fabricated on dielectric
substrate with a grounded plane. It is easily miniaturized and integrated with microwave devices
making it a popular choice of transmission line.
A microstrip line consists of a conductor of width W, a dielectric substrate of thickness d and
permittivity εr. The presence of the dielectric (commonly thin with d << λ) concentrates the field
lines in the region between the between the conductor and the ground plane, with some fraction
being in the air region above the conductor, leading to quasi-TEM modes of propagation in
which dispersion occurs as a function of wavelength as shown in Figure 1 below.
Figure 1: A Microstrip transmission line displaying quasi-TEM mode of propagation. The green
lines represent the E-field and purple lines the H-field.
The Model
Shown here is a microstrip transmission line constructed using copper conductor on Glass
Epoxy Material Properties substrate in CST Studio Suite. The model is simulated in the Time
Domain Solver in the frequency range of 0 – 2 GHz.
The microstrip is designed for a characteristic impedance of 75 Ω at 1 GHz and the following
parameters are of interest to this design.
Impedance Matching
• Maximum power is delivered when load is matched to line (assuming the generator is
matched)
• Power loss is minimized.
• S/N ratio of receiver components is increased.
• Amplitude and phase errors are reduced

B. Modelling the microstrip with dimension W=1.45mm and d=1.6mm.
3. Build the substrate.
(Modelling > Brick > Press ESC > Set Name = Substrate > Set Xmin = -W/2 > Set
Xmax = W/2 > Ymin = -L/2 > Ymax = L/2 > Set Zmx = Hs > Choose Material = Load
from Material Library (FR-4 (loss free)) > Preview > Value = 70 > OK > Value = 70 >
OK > Value = 1.6 > OK > OK )

4. Create the ground (at the bottom of the subsrate)
Rotate the substrate to get the bottom surface.
(Rotate > Picks > Double click the bottom surface)
(Modelling > Extrude Face > Name = Ground > Height = 0.035 > Material = PEC >
OK)

5. Construct the stripline
(Modelling > Brick > Press ESC > Set Name = Strip > Set Xmin = -Ws/2 > Set Xmax
= Ws/2 > Ymin = -L/2 > Ymax = L/2 > Set Zmin = Hs > Set the Zmax = Hs+0.035 >
Choose Material = PEC > Preview > Value = 1.45 > OK > OK )

6. Creating the waveguide port (source)
Need to zoom the strip layer

7. Calculate the dimension of the waveguide
(Home > Macros > Run Macro > Solver > Ports > Calculate port extension
coefficient > Construct port from picked face > Close)

8. Create the lumped element.
(Simulation > Lumped Element > Set R: 100 > L: 20E-9 > Preview)
(Simulation > Background > Lower Y distance: 2 > Apply > OK)

12. Combine the stub and the strip.
(Components > Shift Strip + Stub > Boolean)
13
Observe the stub matching circuit.
13. Resimulate.
