    摘要: A blind mate waveguide flange includes a mating surface for interfacing with a waveguide probe interface. The mating surface includes a choke flange and a first opening to one end of a waveguide transition section. The choke flange includes a choke groove separating a peripheral region of the mating surface from an inner region of the mating surface. The inner region is recessed relative to the peripheral region to provide an air gap upon mating with another mating surface. The first opening has a first shape. The blind mate waveguide flange further includes a waveguide connection interface that includes a second opening at an opposite end of the waveguide transition section for interfacing with a waveguide. The second opening has a second shape such that the waveguide transition section provides a transition from the first shape to the second shape.
