TDR, Meeting Specifications Versus Good Transmission Line Performance

Publish in Microwave Journal on May 14, 2014

I have spent countless hours and many dollars trying to eliminate impedance mismatches from transmission line interconnections, and I suspect that others may have had similar experiences. Through attempts to minimize reflections at 40+ GHz, I have come across examples where a design that meets a TDR discontinuity specification yields more reflections than one that does not.
