Abstract: A transition (1) for transmitting a mm-wave signal from one plane to another, the transition (1) comprising: (a) first and second transmission lines (2a,2b) on parallel planes; (b) a third transmission line (4) orthogonal to the first and second transmission lines (2a,2b), wherein either the first and second transmission lines (2a,2b) are suitable for transmitting a TEM or transverse electromagnetic mode signal and the third transmission line (4) is suitable for transmitting a waveguide mode signal, or the third transmission line (4) is suitable for transmitting a TEM mode signal and the first and second transmission lines (2a,2b) are suitable for transmitting a waveguide mode signal; and (c) first and second transducers (3a,3b), the first transducer (3a) being coupled between the first and third transmission lines (2a,4), the second transducer (3b) being coupled between the second and third transmission lines (2b,4), and each of the transducers (3a,3b) being suitable for converting a TEM mode signal to a waveguide mode signal.
