Abstract:
A wave receiving apparatus, comprising:a conduit for guiding waves, said conduit having an open end allowing entrance of polarized waves and a rear end terminating said conduit; a septum polarizer monolithically formed with said conduit for effecting a circular-linear polarization conversion, said septum polarizer having a planar structure extending from said rear end of said conduit towards said open end of said conduit; a pair of L-shaped signal collectors located to opposite sides of said septum polarizer and pointing towards each other for receiving wave signals, both being positioned at a distance of quarter-wavelength away from said rear end of said conduit; and a circuitry module to which said pair of L-shaped signal collectors are electrically connected for handling wave signals, said circuitry module being positioned sidelong next to said conduit seen from said open end into said conduit.
