Abstract :
Undesired waveguide modes can be excited in a strip transmission line shielded in a wide metallic channel. A mode suppressor which suppresses selectively the waveguide modes over a certain frequency range is described. This technique allows a substantial increase of the channel and dielectric substrate dimensions.
