Abstract :
A low-reflection sliding load in WG11A is described. The load is constructed from sections of lossless and lossy dielectric which completely fill the waveguide cross-section and which can be moved longitudinally in the guide with respect to each other. The reflection coefficient can be set to zero to within 0.0002.
