Design of a Ku-Band High-Purity Transducer for the TM01 Circular Waveguide Mode by Means of T-Type Junctions

A new mode transducer for converting the TE10 rectangular waveguide mode to the TM01 circular waveguide mode is presented. The novel topology is based on two T type junctions with in-phaseexcitation at their input rectangular ports. The first one is an H-plane T-junction in rectangular waveguide. Th...

The novel topology is based on two T type junctions with in-phaseexcitation at their input rectangular ports. The first one is an H-plane T-junction in rectangular waveguide. The second one differs from the standard E-plane T-junction in the excitation, which is carried out by modes excited with fields having the same in-phase polarization at the input rectangular ports, and has the output port in circular waveguide.
