Abstract:This paper presents a novel type of compact inline coaxial to ridge gap waveguide (RGW) transition, which covers the whole Ka frequency band. The structure connects with the connector's inner conductor through a rectangular probe directly. The probe is set in nail bed without any extra parts. Hence, a simple and compact transition comes to fruition at the circuit topology level. This transition can be considered as an inhomogeneous stripline, so the characteristic impedance can be analyzed similarly to the str… Show more
