Abstract
In this paper closed-form expressions for the current density on the g round plane of a microstrip line are derived. The derivation is based on a quasistatic Green's function approach, These expressions are comp ared to both experimental and numerical values, and excellent agreemen t is demonstrated, The loss on a ground plane for a microstrip structu re is calculated using these expressions, and comparisons with results from Wheeler's incremental inductance rule are made.
