Abstract :
A new broadband transition from waveguide-to-coupled fin-line in its quasi-TEM mode is presented. The transition is proposed for low-noise amplifiers or low-noise converters in millimeter-wave bands. Experimental results on the Ka band show a 1 dB insertion loss for a back-to-back double transition over a 10 GHz band
