We report the reduction factor in velocity of a meander coplanar trans
mission line on dielectric substrates. A simple analysis of this devic
e that can be used to reduce the size of microwave integrated circuits
has been carried out by using CAD packages. A size-reduction factor o
f approximately 4-5 has been obtained. (C) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc
