A multilayer dielectric rod waveguide (DRW) is designed for operation at an extended Ku-band from 10 to 18 GHz. The proposed design is fully developed and fabricated by using additive manufacturing technologies, particularly fused deposition modeling (FDM). The multilayer DRW is formed by a medium-Λ dielectric core printed with a custom-made ceramic composite and a low permittivity ABS cladding. Both materials are compatible with FDM. Device performance is measured with and without the presence of the low permittivity cladding. The insertion loss of the multi-layer DRW is less than 0.012 dB/mm and the attenuation due to each waveguide feed transition falls within 0.29 to 0.98 dB in the entire frequency range. Additionally, the presence of the cladding extends the 1 dB cut-off frequency by 2 GHz, thus improving the 1dB operational bandwidth by 50 %.
