Abstract
The present invention features a waveguide transition. A waveguide transition is used to join two dissimilar segments of waveguide, in this case coplanar waveguide to rectangular waveguide, and vice-versa. Care taken during the design of the waveguide transition ensures that the reflection of electromagnetic waves, which may be traveling along the coplanar waveguide segment and toward the waveguide transition and subsequent rectangular waveguide segment, is minimized.
