Coplanar wavewguide with GND plane

BoniUNIPR

I have to simulate with spectreRF a 2.4GHz LNA including  the effect of the PCB lines. The RF input signal is provided through a coplanar waveguide with gnd plane underneath.

I see that the coplanar waveguide element is not included in the RFTlineLib (only microstrip and stripline).

Any suggestions ?

    I'm guessing that maybe you're using an old version? A component coplanar was added in rfTLineLib in IC6.1.7/ICADV12.3 ISR23 and IC6.1.8/ICADVM18.1 ISR1.

    Thanks Andrew,

    you are right. Indeed I was using IC 6.1.6. I'll move to 6.1.7 or 6.1.8.
