Hollow metallic waveguides - Part 4: Relevant specifications for circular waveguides EN 60153-4:2017

Publication date:   Jan 15, 2018

Scope

IEC 60153-4:2017 specifies straight hollow metallic tubing of circular waveguides for use as waveguides in electronic equipment.

The aim of this recommendation is to specify for hollow metallic waveguides:

a) the details necessary to ensure compatibility and, as far as essential, interchangeability;

b) test methods;

c) uniform requirements for the electrical and mechanical properties.

This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:

a) expand and revise the operation frequency range for waveguides;

b) revise the allowance of aperture dimensions;

c) revise the test method for aperture dimensions;

d) revise the equation of attenuation.
