ABSTRACT:
When manufacturing waveguides, for example densely located waveguide channels, for electromagnetic waves such as microwaves, the channels are produced from rod-shaped bodies (1) of a material permeable to the waves and non significantly attenuating the waves. The bodies (1) can for example project from a base plate (3) and their side surfaces are coated with electrically conducting material but not their free end surfaces (5). The interior of the bodies form the waveguide channels, which have their walls formed from the layer of electrically conducting material. By giving the rod-shaped bodies suitable shapes for example an antenna side or half of a waveguide antenna can be manufactured. The rod-shaped bodies can before applying the electrically conducting material be coated with one or several layers of non-attenuating and non-conducting lacquer filling pores and smoothing the surface of the bodies. Thereby, the layer of electrically conducting material obtains a smooth transition surface to the material of the bodies giving the channels good waveguide characteristics. If the material used in the bodies has a strong surface porosity, the channels formed from the rod-shaped bodies become strongly attenuating to the electromagnetic waves. A set of such bodies located at the sides of each other and having suitable dimensions of the bodies gives an element working strongly attenuating to the electromagnetic waves.
