Abstract :
The discontinuities of non-leaky coplanar (NLC) waveguide is analyzed by using the extended spectral domain approach. It is found that the SMA-to-NLC transition will cause power leakage during experiment. Except for the small leakage, the theoretical and experimental results agree well.<>
