Latest Patents

Volkov is associated with 1 patent: “Additively Manufactured Monolithic Waveguide Transmission Line with Stepped Mode Transition.” The invention describes a monolithic structure with a cavity formed by one or more walls, openings at opposite ends, and a staircase extending between those openings. A coaxial center conductor extends from the staircase’s final step and through the second opening.

The structure may also include an extension beneath the second opening that continues past the end of the coaxial center conductor. A grounded coplanar waveguide transition board and an amplifier are positioned on separate sections of the extension’s upper surface. The design integrates these components into a structure intended for waveguide transmission and mode transition.
