Abstract

A waveguide substrate has improved signal conversion characteristic to a cavity waveguide at a post wall waveguide less suffering a manufacturing error occurring at a portion leading the signal to the cavity waveguide. The waveguide substrate has a converting part provided at a position shutting off an end of the waveguide, waveguide shutting-off conducting posts penetrating a dielectric plate to electrically conduct between conductor layers on the both surfaces of the dielectric plate, and two slit-like regions, in which no conductor layer is formed, arranged in parallel in the upper stream and the lower stream with respect to a direction of propagation of a high-frequency signal from the waveguide toward the waveguide shutting-off conducting posts.
