ABSTRACT:
In a waveguide-to-microstrip line coupling arrangement, a microstrip line is placed on an outer surface of a wall of a waveguide which is coupled with the microstrip line via a metallic post connected at its one end to a center strip conductor of the microstrip line and is inserted inside the waveguide via through-holes made in a ground plane of the microstrip line and in the wall of the waveguide where the diameter of the through-hole made in the ground plane is made smaller than that of the through-hole made in the wall of the waveguide. The waveguide has a short-circuited end and the metallic post is placed close to the short-circuited end. The coupling arrangement may be used in a microwave frequency converter having an microwave integrated circuit including a local oscillator and a mixer, where the MIC is located on an outer surface of a longitudinal wall extending from a short-circuited end to an open end.
