Attenuation Constant in Microwave Theory Formulas

Attenuation Constant is a function of the microstrip geometry, the electrical properties of the dielectric substrate and the conductors, and frequency. And is denoted by α. Attenuation Constant is usually measured using the Decibel per Meter for Attenuation. Note that the value of Attenuation Constant is always positive.
