Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a waveguide, wherein the waveguide includes two waveguide units that are joined together, each waveguide unit having flanges at respective sides, such that the flanges of a first of the waveguide units abut the flanges of a second of the waveguide units, each waveguide unit having a groove at a center for guiding waves, inner walls of the groove being metal-plated, the method comprising: forming the first and second waveguide units so the flanges have through holes; and forming a resin cover that fills the through holes and covers both the first and second waveguide units, at least partially, by, after joining the first and second waveguide units, insert molding the two waveguide units with a thermoplastic resin.
