Abstract :
The resonant properties of transmission-line resonators can be used to measure the line propagation constant. This technique is applied here to the even and odd modes of propagation of symmetrical pairs of coupled micro- strips. A sample measurement is presented and possible extensions in the use of the method are outlined.
