Abstract

See full text

A parallel plate waveguide structure may be configured to suppress spurious propagating modes by including a lossy frequency selective surface (FSS). The electromagnetic material properties of individual layers disposed between the conductive plates of the waveguide may be engineered to extend the suppression band of the fundamental TE mode up to the cutoff frequency of the second TE mode. Examples of mode suppression structures are presented and analyzed by transverse resonance models. Applications include, for example, cavity mode suppression in microwave and millimeterwave assemblies at the board, package, and chip level.
