This letter discusses the design, manufacture, and characterization of a substrate‐integrated waveguide E‐plane tapering. The tapering facilitates the integration of two waveguides with varying heights for, that is, conductor‐backed coplanar waveguide to rectangular waveguide integration. A simultaneous top‐ and bottom‐sided, λ/4‐based stepped tapering for the 71–86 GHz band is designed using low‐temperature co‐fired ceramic technology. The fabricated design is measured using two E‐plane taperings in back‐to‐back configuration. The reflection coefficient better than −11.8 dB, and the transmission coefficient larger than −1.4 dB at the full 71–86‐GHz range for a single tapering is extracted from the measurement using time‐gating.
