Three launchers of the dominant surface wave of a single strip line are investigated by the Finite Element Method. The first two launchers are the smooth transitions from a microstrip line to a single-strip line. Planar and non-planar constructions of transitions are considered. The third launcher has a non-planar construction and a coaxial input.
