Abstract

A rectangular waveguide fed by a grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) is investigated using the finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) method. A patch is used to couple energy to the rectangular waveguide (RW) by placing the waveguide opening around the patch. The coupling from the GCPW to the patch is accomplished via an open end. For a 10 dB return loss, a relative bandwidth of 14% is obtained for a GCPW‐to‐RW transition. A back‐to‐back GCPW‐to‐RW transition is analyzed, and is found to have good insertion‐loss characteristics, which verifies that power is indeed coupled to the waveguide. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract Wideband transitions are designed and analysed by using two different approaches of the finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) method, in combination with the theory of nonuniform transmission lines. These transitions consist of a ridged waveguide‐based taper between a shielded microstrip
