Abstract

This paper describes an on-going activity to develop an international documentary standard for defining rectangular metallic waveguides for use in the submillimeter-wave to terahertz frequency range. The IEEE´s Microwave Theory & Techniques Society (MTT-S) is sponsoring the development of this standard. The MTT-S Standards Committee has set up a Working Group (P1785) that is tasked with writing the standard.¹ Work completed to date by the Working Group and the future activities that will be necessary to complete the standard are described.
