| Since resonant-type metamaterial transmission lines were proposed (Martín et al., 2003), this kind of transmission lines have been of significant importance in the development of new and innovative microwave devices. The small size and novel characteristics of these transmission lines based on sub-wavelength resonators allows the miniaturization and improvement of existing devices (Bonache et al., 2006a, 2006b; Gil et al., 2007a, 2007b), as well as the design of components with new functionalities (Sisó et al., 2008, 2009). Due to the complicated layouts that these designs usually involve, having an accurate equivalent circuit model is an important assist during the design process. Besides, the application of parameter extraction methods (Bonache et al., 2006c) to obtain the values of the electrical parameters of the circuit model makes possible the characterization of both the transmission line and, therefore, the microwave device. The circuit models and parameter extraction methods presented in this chapter have been widely verified and their accuracy permits even their application for automatic layout generation based on space mapping techniques (Selga et al., 2010), which is a large and useful advance in the design of such structures. | |
