Abstract :
The analysis of three microstrip lines, using the method of lines is introduced. Design curves for three coupled microstrip lines with equal effective dielectric constant are obtained. Using these curves, the coupling region of some applications can be exactly calculated rather than using the approximation of taking the average of the wavelength of the three modes of propagation
