    摘要: A waveguide device for guiding a radio frequency signal at a determined frequency f, the device including a body having side walls with outer surfaces and inner surfaces, the inner surfaces defining a waveguide channel. A conductive layer covers the inner surface of the body, the conductive layer being formed of a metal having a skin depth δ at frequency f. The conductive layer has a thickness at least twenty times as large as the skin depth δ.

    摘要: The invention concerns a flexible waveguide device (10), of the bellows type, for guiding a radio frequency signal at a given frequency range. The device comprises: a core (12) comprising outer and inner side walls (14a, 14b), the inner walls (14b) delimiting a waveguide channel (16); two fixing flanges (18a, 18b) connected to or integral with respective ends of the core (12), and at least one flexible corrugated portion (20) formed on a part of the outer side walls (14a) of the core (12) and comprising a plurality of circumferential ribs (22) adjacent to each other. Each rib (22) is devoid of corrugation along its circumference. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing the flexible waveguide device.
