摘要: In this letter, a novel cost-effective flange is proposed to prevent the leakage created by undesired air gaps between flanges of two mating waveguides. The cause an gap can be surface curvature, dirt, human mistakes, or misalignment. Our proposal consists machining glide-symmetric holes around waveguide aperture on flanges. Due glide symmetry properties, identical pattern possible at both sides, thus becoming when they are mated together.
