Abstract
A mixer including a plurality of mixer diodes arranged at a junction formed by first, second and third waveguides. The first waveguide is a slot transmission line including spaced-apart conductive layers on each of the opposite sides of a dielectric substrate. The second waveguide is a coplanar transmission line including spaced-apart conductive layers and a central conductive layer on each side of the substrate. The third waveguide is a parallel plate transmission line including extended portions of the central conductive layers, which extend toward the slot in the first waveguide. The diodes electrically connect the extended portion of the central conductive layers to the spaced-apart conductive layers of the first waveguide.
