Zusammenfassung:The invention concerns a flexible waveguide device (10), of the bellows type, for guiding a radio frequency signal at a given frequency range. The device comprises: a core (12) comprising outer and inner side walls (14a, 14b), the inner walls (14b) delimiting a waveguide channel (16); two fixing flanges (18a, 18b) connected to or integral with respective ends of the core (12), and at least one flexible corrugated portion (20) formed on a part of the outer side walls (14a) of the core (12) and comprising a plurality of circumferential ribs (22) adjacent to each other. Each rib (22) is devoid of corrugation along its circumference. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing the flexible waveguide device.
