Closed-form expressions for various types of discontinuities in microstrip, viz. open ends, gaps, step in width, right-angle bend, T-junction and cross-junction, are derived by curve-fitting the available data. The reported expressions are accurate to within 5% in the range of parameter most commonly used. These results save computer time and may be useful in the computer-aided design of microwave integrated circuits.
