Patent ID: 10950920

Abstract:
It is provided a waveguide comprising a tubular, electrically conductive waveguide body, the waveguide having a rectangular cross-section. The waveguide further comprises an electrically conductive foil comprising at least one matching portion arranged within the waveguide body, extending along a propagation direction of the waveguide body, and at least one connection portion arranged outside of the waveguide body, for connecting the waveguide to a component, wherein the matching portion of the foil is tapered in a propagation direction of the waveguide and arranged to form a ridge protruding from a sidewall of the waveguide along part of the length of the waveguide, and wherein the connection portion extends outside of the waveguide, in a propagation direction of the waveguide and in the same plane as the matching portion. It is also provided a waveguide arrangement and a method for manufacturing such a waveguide arrangement.
