Abstract :
A multilayer V-shaped coplanar waveguide transmission line fabricated by using MMIC technology is proposed and its performance is investigated experimentally and with electromagnetic simulations. This structure can eliminate the problem of current crowding at the edges of the signal and ground conductors
