Abstract
A band of frequencies around 35 GHz has found widely increasing use as an low attenuation window in communication, tracking radars and military purposes. A study of the impedance variation around 35 GHz at the centre of a radial transmission line with respect to its geometrical parameters is presented here. The variation of the resistance and reactance may be useful in explaining the properties of a millimeter wave 35 GHz resonant cap Impatt oscillator. The results have been compared with the experimental results and a qualitative agreement has been reached.
