Summary: 
In this paper, the transmission and reflection properties of the microstrip line with bends are investigated using the Fourier transform and a mode-matching technique. Based on the waveguide model, the microstrip bends are modeled as the rectangular waveguides with perfect electric conducting top and bottom walls and perfect magnetic conducting side walls. Analytical closed-form expressions for transmission and reflection coefficients are developed using the residue calculus. To verify the proposed method, numerical computations are performed for comparison with 3D full-wave simulations and measurements. A quarter-wavelength transmission line scheme is also proposed to improve the signal integrity of double bend discontinuity.
