    Abstract

    Novel via-less multilayer coplanar waveguide (CPW)to thin-film microstrip (TFMS) transitions are presented usingelectromagnetic simulations and experimental measurements.The proposed transition design demonstrates a maximuminsertion loss of 1dB over the frequency range from 8 to 42 GHzand a return loss which is lower than 18dB from 19 to 71 GHz. Avariety of applications of the transition could be found due to itscompatibility with RF systems on chip, low cost, low lossperformance and its ease of fabrication.
