Abstract
An antipodal finline to microstrip transition for operation in the Ka Band (26.5-40 GHz) has been designed and characterised. Back to back transitions fabricated on soft substrates have been measured and simulated to verify their behaviour. Various configurations are implemented and a practical method to improve the design is used
