Abstract

A waveguide transition includes a ridge waveguide section with a first ridge part running along a first wall having a first distance to an opposing second wall. The waveguide transition comprises a partial H-plane waveguide section with an electrically conducting foil that comprises a longitudinally running foil slot ending a certain edge distance before a foil edge that faces the ridge waveguide section. The ridge waveguide section and the partial H-plane waveguide section overlap during a transition section that has a first end at a transition between the second wall and a third wall. There is a second distance between the first wall and the third wall that exceeds the first distance. The transition section has a second end where the first ridge part ends by a transversely running second ridge part that crosses the foil slot and connects to a third wall.
