Abstract :
A substrate integrated folded waveguide is shown that remains monomode from 2.6 GHz to 11 GHz covering the entire Federal communications commission´s allocated ultra-wideband spectrum of 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz. Furthermore, the structure is only 8.5 mm wide. Measured results are given that verify the operation of the guide
