Abstract-This paper describes the design and realization of a transition from a microstrip line to a ridge gap waveguide operating between 95 and 115 GHz. The study includes simulations, measurements, and a Monte Carlo analysis of the assembly tolerances. The purpose of this tolerance study is to identify the most critical misalignments that affect the circuit performance and to provide guidelines about the assembly tolerance requirements for the proposed transition design.
In REF , the authors propose a transition between a microstrip line and a ridge gap waveguide, and they use the Monte Carlo method to analysis the assembly tolerances.
