Summary:
The equivalent-circuit expression of bend discontinuity in differential transmission lines, which is derived from the view of the mode-decomposition technique, is proposed in this paper. We investigated the relationship between the amount of mode conversion in the bend region and two components in the modal equivalent circuit: the mode-conversion sources and the modal reactances (modal inductances and capacitances). As a result, it was found that not only the difference in the imbalance factor but also the magnitude of the modal reactances can have a lot of effect on the mode conversion.
