Abstract
Estimating the attenuation constant of a low loss
transmission medium is by no means a simple task at
microwave and millimetre wave frequencies. In this paper,
the attenuation constant of microstrip line printed on
Heraeus CT2000 LTCC [1] is determined over the 20 to 40
GHz range using three different analysis techniques. All
three methods yield different loss estimates, which begs
the question as to which method should be considered the
most accurate. Although the ultimate aim of this work is
the loss characterisation of the microstrip, it also
provides an opportunity to explore the issues related to
accurate loss evaluation.
