Stripline's characteristic impedance

[peripatein]

THIS IS NOT A HW/COURSEWORK QUESTION!

I am simply revising for an exam and am trying to better understand the behavior of the stripline as shown in the file attached. What would be the effect on the characteristic impedance, as W/b/epsilon_r/t increases (each separately)?

I may still move this to the Homework Help forum, but I'm not sure yet. Part of posting there is writing the Relevant Equations and showing your Attempt at a Solution. You have done neither so far. Please show us what you know so far about transmission line construction (including the definition of Zo), and tell us what you think about the variations in dimensions and characteristics, and their effect on Zo...
