Abstract :
A generalization of the partial image method, applicable for static planar-layered problems, is used to form Green´s functions for the layered structure involving bi-isotropic medium. The results are applied for the analysis of a microstrip transmission line assumed to support the quasi-TEM mode. The capacitance and inductance per unit length are calculated to determine the propagation factor and impedance for the structure composed of a conducting strip attached to a bi-isotropic slab with conducting backing
