A low‐cost, easy to fabricate waveguide‐to‐microstrip E‐probe transition for the entire × band is introduced. Experimental data shows the E‐probe transition to be broadband with low insertion loss. The design of a test fixture to characterize accurately a single waveguide‐to‐microstrip transition is also presented.
