Abstract :
Thanks to the help of the low pass (LP) filter theory, we propose in this study a simple design methodology to optimize a coplanar waveguide (CPW) to microstripline (MSL) transition. This transition will be analyzed like a T LC network. The layout of the CPW to MSL transition will be tuned in the aim that the T network will be equivalent to a 3rd order Chebyshev low pass (LP) filter up to a given frequency cutoff set in the mm wave domain.
