摘要： This paper offers an approximate, but very convenient and accurate, manner to find the desired strip width for substrate integrated gap waveguide (SIGW) with a given characteristic impedance and the conductor and dielectric attenuation constants, without any complicated manual calculations or time-consuming full-wave simulation and optimization iterations. Moreover, the investigation of the transition between SIGW and microstrip lines will prove that an additional transition structure, such as a conventional microstrip taper, is not required any more at millimeter-wave frequencies for the desired transmission performance. This is a useful feature in circuit design and compactness. Both of the above works will be of great help to realize future feeding networks for SIGW antenna arrays or other types of cost-effective SIGW passive components at high frequencies. Two SIGW prototypes, working at Ka and V bands, are fabricated and offer experimental verifications, which present good agreement with the simulation results.
