  • Abstract
    In this paper, we propose two low loss microstrip lines with side-grooves which can weaken the concentration of the current density at the edges of the strip conductor. A method called partial-boundary element method (p-BEM) is employed in our analysis. Theoretical results for these lines demonstrate significant effects on the conductor loss reduction by the side-grooves and inlaid dielectric material.
