Transmission Line Parameters of a Wire Over a Plane

Instructions: Enter the frequency, wire height, and wire radius. If you want to specify a conductor other than copper, choose "custom" and specify the conductivity of the conductor material. If you want to specify a dielectric other than air, choose one of the other optional materials or choose "custom" and specify the relative permittivity of the dielectric. Click the "Calculate" button to show the calculated transmission line parameters. Per-unit-length parameters are "per meter" if the wire height units are cm or mm. They are "per foot" if the wire height spacing units are inches or mils.

Note: All materials are non-magnetic (i.e. μ = μ₀). Dielectric losses are not modeled.
