Abstract

Impedance control elements that are implemented in conjunction with the transition region of an electromagnetic waveguide to diminish the effect of reflective pulses on the signal transmission and to create linear impedance transition in the transition region are provided for. The device of the present invention provides the stated benefits in electromagnetic waveguides that are capable of high bandwidth signal transmission.
