Abstract:
1. A waveguide power divider having a first rectangular waveguide portion and a second rectangular waveguide portion bonded together in a stacked arrangement with the first rectangular waveguide portion and the second rectangular waveguide portion extending in parallel along a common longitudinal direction, the first rectangular waveguide portion and the second rectangular waveguide portion sharing a common wide wall there between having a coupling slot provided through the shared common wide wall, the first rectangular waveguide portion having an end portion set as a short-circuit surface at a position located beyond the coupling slot position in the common longitudinal direction, the waveguide power divider further having three ports formed, respectively, as an open end of the first rectangular waveguide portion opposed to the end portion thereof set as the short-circuit surface and open ends at opposite sides in the common longitudinal direction of the second rectangular waveguide portion, wherein the coupling slot is formed by providing a slot direction in parallel to the common longitudinal direction, and a matching conductor projected into the second rectangular waveguide portion near the coupling slot is provided on one sidewall of the second rectangular waveguide portion.
