Abstract :
Rectangular waveguides partially filled with a dielectric slab in the E plane can provide an alternative to ridged waveguides in broad-band systems. It is shown that by an appropriate choice of the dielectric constant, maximum power handling capacity for a given bandwidth and cutoff wavelength can be achieved. This power-handling capacity is much higher than for ridged waveguides. Attenuation and the effect of the first longitudinal-section-electric (LSE) mode on bandwidth are also discussed.
