Abstract:
1. A waveguide orthomode transducer comprising: an electric wave branch means for branching a horizontally polarized electric wave included in a circularly-polarized-wave signal inputted thereto toward first horizontal symmetrical directions, and for branching a vertically polarized electric wave included in the circularly-polarized-wave signal toward second horizontal symmetrical directions; a first radio wave conducting means for conducting a first electric wave of the horizontally polarized electric wave branched by said electric wave branch means, for conducting a second electric wave of the horizontally polarized electric wave, for combining the first and second electric waves of the horizontally polarized electric wave and dividing the combined electric wave into a first basic mode electric wave and a first higher mode electric wave, and for outputting them; and a second radio wave conducting means for conducting a first electric wave of the vertically polarized electric wave branched by said electric wave branch means, for conducting a second electric wave of the vertically polarized electric wave, for combining the first and second electric waves of the vertically polarized electric wave and dividing the combined electric wave into a second basic mode electric wave and a second higher mode electric wave, and for outputting them.
