Hello,I have built a microstrip line structure as shown below In photo and article 1.
my lines are er=9.4 h=0.433 line width W=0.015mm spacing between lines 0.065mm and 2 micron thickness.
The line impedance properties is 140 Ohm.
However I need also to build a feeding network for these lines.
I was suggested to use this nature article with the intrested shape.
Howeven i dont see the impedance power dividing logic in this tear drop shape.
I know its supposed to be a transformer of some sort,but there is a huge discontinuety in the width between W1(tear drop shape) and Wt(line width).
What is the impedance logic in this huge transition?
Thanks.
