Abstract
A technique is proposed to extend the bandwidth of a finline at millimetre- wave frequencies. Instead of mounting the slotline in the E-plane in the ce ntre of the waveguide, the slotline is positioned in a plane where the elec tric field of the TE20 mode is zero. The bandwidth enhancement is calculate d analytically and confirmed by rigorous 3D electromagnetic simulation.
