This paper presents a novel planar matching load for travelingwave-fed substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) slot arrays. The load consists of a planar grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) matching load and a planar GCPW to SIW transition which makes the GCPW matching load compatible with the SIW. In the GCPW matching load a high frequency resistor is used to dissipate the remaining power. A trave...

The design and fabrication of a band-pass step impedance filter based on high and low dielectric constant sections has been realized on substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology. The overall process includes the design of the ideal band-pass prototype filter, where the implementation of the impedance inverters has been carried out by means of waveguide sections of lower permittivity.

A waveguide whose sidewalls are replaced with densely arranged metallic posts has been proposed. This guide enables the easy realization of circuit patterns by the arrangement of metallic posts periodically in a parallel-plate waveguide or a grounded dielectric substrate. This type of waveguide is called the post-wall waveguide (PWW) (Hirokawa & Ando, 1998;Ando et al., 1998) or the substrate in...

A power divider (PD)/ power combiner (PC) with high quality factor and enhanced output ports isolation using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology is proposed. An SIW cavity is designed to provide a high quality factor filtering response and an SMD resistor is attached between two output ports to realize the high isolation. The value of the applied resistor is calculated by using the ...

In this pare, a wideband three-order bandpass filter (BPF) is proposed. The proposed wideband filter is designed using the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure by loading T-shape slots. A BPF with two resonators is formed by etching T-shape slots with different size on the top metal plane of the SIW structure. The filter is investigated with the theory of coupled resonator circuits. T...

The Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) technology is a very promising candidate to provide widespread commercial solutions for modern communications systems. Its main advantage is the possibility to integrate passive/active components and antennas in the same substrate by using standard manufacturing processes, such as the Printed Circuits Board (PCB) processing technique. Nevertheless, the p...

The paper presents the design and fabrication of a H-plane substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) horn antenna. The antenna operates at 60 GHz band and is equipped with a SIW-to-WR15 transition.

This work proposes a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) power divider employing the Wilkinson configuration for improving the isolation performance of conventional T-junction SIW power dividers.

The Wilkinson-type performa...
