Abstract

A waveguide assembly which includes an elongated waveguide element (1) and a connector body (2). The connector body (2) is connected to an end of the elongated waveguide element (1) and has a substantially planar bottom surface (24) and an opposing top surface (23). The connector body is made from a single piece of partially metallized dielectric. The connector body has a waveguide coupling element (21) adjacent to the elongated waveguide element (1). The connector body further has an arrangement of electromagnetic band gap elements (27) adjacent to the waveguide coupling element (21).
