Thus, the central conductor of the edge line must be cut into six wedges, resulting in an increase in the discontinuity of the coaxial transition to the edge-line. In this paper, a new design of matrix switch is investigated, which has three transmission modes, so it can flexibly transmit microwave signal. The switch can transmit signals all the way down to dc, with the highest frequency is available up to 40 GHz.
