Abstract

A simple closed-form expression for the effective dielectric constant of a microstrip on a two-layer substrate is presented. Results for single layer cases are incorporated in the formula to simplify it and increase the accuracy. The formula is curve-fitted from results computed with the Spectral Domain approach and is accurate to within three percent relative error over a wide range of parameters.
