Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed for a printed circuit board. An example printed circuit board includes a ground plane comprising a pattern of an electrically conductive material. The example printed circuit board further includes a circuit trace disposed adjacent to the ground plane, where one or more characteristics of one of more of the pattern of the electrically conductive material in the ground plane and the circuit trace vary based upon a directional change of the circuit trace.
