Abstract :
The coupling theory is applied to analyze bending loss characteristics of the nonradiative dielectric waveguide. As an application of the theory, a low loss 180° bend with a curvature radius of 5 mm was fabricated and successfully tested at 50 GHz. The measured bending loss never exceeded 0.3 dB.
