Abstract

A waveguide device includes: a first conductive member having a first conductive surface; a first waveguide member having a first waveguide face opposing the first conductive surface; a plurality of first conductive rods on both sides of the first waveguide member; a second conductive member having a second conductive surface; a second waveguide member having a second waveguide face opposing the second conductive surface; and a plurality of second conductive rods on both sides of the second waveguide member. A first waveguide gap exists between the first waveguide face and the first conductive surface. A second waveguide gap exists between the second waveguide face and the second conductive surface. One end of the first waveguide gap is connected to the second waveguide gap, and at a connecting portion therebetween, the first waveguide face extends in a direction that intersects a plane which is parallel to the second conductive surface.
