Abstract
A novel transition structure based on Substrate Integrated Circular Cavity (SICC) is proposed in this paper. The design approach has been developed for transition designing in other operating frequency. Good performance of flexibility and S-parameters were observed for the new transition structure. Different design tools were used to validate the design method.
