Microstrip Line:
It is a transmission line that is fabricated using Printed Circuit Board Technology.
It is formed over a dielectric substrate that separate the conducting strip from ground plane.
It convey the microwave frequency signal. Microwave components can be formed from micro-strip such
as antenna, filters, Power dividers and couplers etc. these exist as the pattern of materialization on the substrate.
Figures show that area A is the Conductor, area B is Air, area C is Dielectric separating conductor from Ground Plane D.
Disadvantage:
1. Microstrip Line has lower power handling capacity than wave guide.
2. These are susceptible to cross talk as they are not enclosed like waveguide.
