Abstract :
The authors present the equivalent network and the filter characteristics of a periodic NRD (nonradiative dielectric) guide structure. This structure can be used in a millimeter-wave dielectric waveguide integrated oscillator as a frequency stabilizer. The filter characteristics of the NRD waveguide grating are investigated rigorously by combining the network approach with mode matching theory. Numerical examples are shown and found to agree well with experimental results.<>
