Abstract :
An evaluation of losses of the Ridge Gap Waveguide (r-GAP) at 100 GHz has been developed in terms of Quality Factor. For this aim, an r-GAP resonator has been designed, simulated and measured. The feeding to the circuit is provided via a transition from Micostrip-to-Ridge Gap Waveguide based in electromagnetic coupling in order to ensure compatibility with the available probe stations.
