Abstract :
A simple and tunable waveguide-to-microstrip transition is presented, the transition structure is a dielectric substrate overlaid with metal patches and inserted into the wide wall of the waveguide. A flexible numerical analysis method based on the weak form of the Helmholtz equations is used to optimize and analyze the transition.
