Basics

The following components are considered basic building blocks in most designs, and are commonly used as connectors.

These building blocks are parametric cells whose input parameters can be arbitrary values entered by the user.

Straight/Tapered waveguide

Conventional waveguide that can be used as a straight guide or as a taper.

Alt text

Asymmetric tapered waveguide

Tapered waveguide with shifted final center.

Alt text

Bends

A conventional waveguide bend with arbitrary width and radius.

Alt text

Pipe

Connector comprissing an arbitraty number of straight and bent waveguides, with arbitrary length, width and curve radius.

Alt text

S-bend

A conventional waveguide, laid out as an S-bend.

Alt text

Horn taper

A conventional waveguide, laid out as a tapered bend.

Alt text

SWG waveguide

A SWG waveguide which can be used as a straight SWG guide or as a SWG taper.

Alt text

SWG taper

A SWG taper transition from conventional to SWG waveguide.
