Abstract :
A transition between standard X-band waveguide and non-radiating dielectric (NRD) waveguide is described. It consists of a transition from air-filled rectangular waveguide to reduced-width dielectric-filled waveguide, cascaded with a transition to NRD. Both transitions are theoretically designed to provide both mode matching as well as a low reflection coefficient. The composite transition can be used for measurements in NRD while making use of conventional waveguide test equipment.
