Abstract
Miniature slow-wave transmission lines are described having an asymmetrical ground configuration. In some embodiments, the asymmetrical ground configuration facilitates a reduction in size. Non-uniform auxiliary conductors may be disposed above or below the co-planar waveguide to facilitate a reduction in the length of the miniature slow-wave transmission lines. Phase shifters may be implemented having a reduced size by including one or more miniature slow-wave transmission lines.
