Year: 2026

This paper presents a waveguide energy-selective device operating in the Ku band. By utilizing the nonlinear characteristics of PIN diodes, the device can autonomously switch its operating state according to the power level of incident signals inside the waveguide, achieving an adaptive transmission response. Concurrently, through a dual-layer structural design and optimized inter-layer coupling, it enables the device to deliver broadband-protective performance within the Ku band. To validate it
