  • Abstract
    This letter presents a new transition from coax to troughguide. The transition was developed using a combination of finite element method modeling and experimental validation. A frequency bandwidth of approximately 12% was achieved at a reflection coefficient of -20 dB. Detailed design parameters and a comparison between modeled and measured results are presented.
