Abstract

The paper proposes a broadband design and measurement of insertion loss (IL) based on direct metallized polyimide for Flexible Copper-Clad Laminate (FCCL), a crucial foundational material for a variety of applications such as mobile devices, wearable electronics, and point-of-biosensors. We designed a grounded coplanar waveguide transmission line as our measurement fixture with a transition line at the two end port connector in order to reduce impedance mismatch. This model was implemented in an HFSS simulator. A multiline through-reflect-line (TRL) calibration and de-embedding technique were applied to obtain accurate pure response S-parameters of the device under test (DUT). The results obtained from both techniques showed a high degree of agreement with each other in the frequency range from 0.1 to 67 GHz.
