Abstract

A new kind of V-ridge waveguide is presented in this paper. The transmission problem is solved by edge element for the first time. The field patterns of the waveguide with single, double and triple V-ridge for different values of dielectric constant have been presented. Variations of the cutoff wavelength, single-mode bandwidth with the ridge dimensions for different values of dielectric constant are investigated in detail. The results will be of practical significance in designing ridge waveguide components in microwave and millimeter wave engineering.
