Abstract

Three different coupling structures for a groove guide resonator operating at 10 GHz are investigated. First, propagatable modes are determined analytically. Then, the efficiency of the coupling structures is investigated by means of the method of moments and measurements. Finally, a groove guide resonator is designed and the resonance spectrum for each coupling structure is computed numerically, applying the finite‐difference time‐domain method. Numerical results are compared with experimental measurements. There is good agreement between the measured and simulated data. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
