Abstract

This paper presents a millimeter wave-guiding technique for passive frequency band splitting and combining. The devices which can be made possible as a result of implementing this technique have potential for use in high speed signaling systems for the purpose of facilitating the transmission of multiple carrier frequency signals through the same guiding structure. The device splitting operation causes minor signal attenuation or power loss in the split frequency bands and is based upon modal waveguide design principles.
