Abstract
A substrate integrated waveguide Magic Tee with very compact size and operating over a wide band is proposed. The circuit is made of two stacked substrates connected by cutting a small aperture between them. This solution presents slightly higher complexity compared to a single substrate magic Tee but it avoids the radiation losses because the circuit is completely closed. A simple and effective procedure is used to design the circuit. A prototype is built and experimental results show a good agreement with simulations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
