    摘要: A feed horn employing a novel compensator design which substantially reduces off-axis cross polarized components of circularly polarized energy over a wide range of angular directions. The compensator comprises a plurality of L-shaped compensating conductors disposed in a generally symmetrical fashion about a longitudinal axis of the feed horn. The conductors extend inwardly from the output aperture of the feed horn and then radially outwards a predetermined distance away from the axis toward the horn sidewall. The conductors are disposed at an angle relative to the axis, which angle is generally defined by an cone whose apex is the same as the apex of the feed horn. A nonconducting support structure supports the conductors within the feed horn. A dielectric matching member is disposed in the feed horn to eliminate unwanted energy reflections.

    摘要: A modulator system for converting a three-channel input microwave signal to a single-channel output microwave signal is formed of two microwave sections which are joined together at both their inputs and their outputs by hybrid circuits, one of which serves as a power divider and the other which serves as a power combiner. Each of the microwave sections includes a pair of couplers which are joined by a Faraday rotator. First and second microwave input signals are applied to a first port of an input coupler in each of these sections. A third microwave signal is connected by the hybrid divider to a second input port in the input couplers of each of the microwave sections. Polarization of the third signal is vertical and is maintained through the two sections. Polarization of the first and second signals is horizontal and is maintained through the two sections. With activation of the rotator, a shift in polarization occurs resulting in appearance of the signals in both the horizontal and vertical components of an output coupler in each of the sections. The vertical component of the output couplers in each of the sections is combined by the hybrid combiner to produce the single-channel microwave signal. Synchronous detectors are utilized for subsequent extraction of the first and second input signals, the synchronous detectors and the Faraday rotators being driven by common sources of modulation signals wherein the rotator in one section in modulated at a rate different from the rotator in the second section.

    摘要: A diplexer for processing polarized energy at separate transmit and receive frequencies. The nature of the polarization may be circular, linear or elliptical depending upon the phasing associated therewith. The diplexer comprises a waveguide having first and second ports disposed at opposite ends thereof. A symmetrical bandpass resonator arrangement is disposed around the periphery of the waveguide and couples energy at the receive frequency out of the waveguide. A symmetrical bandstop resonator arrangement is also disposed around the periphery of the waveguide and filters energy at the receive frequency to prevent coupling of received energy to the second port. The bandpass resonators of each of the resonator arrangements generally include tuning members that control the amount of energy coupled from the waveguide and that adjust and balance the polarization components of the energy to maintain the polarization state thereof. A plurality of tuning rings may be diposed adjacent to the first port that compensate for the impedance mismatch caused by external components coupled to the waveguide. A tuning ring may also be provided at the second port that compensates for impedance mismatch caused by the resonator arrangements. The diplexer is generally an overmoded structure that permits the propagation of higher order modes in the received energy. The symmetry provided in the bandpass resonator arrangement inhibits or prevents the excitation of these higher order modes and hence received energy not coupled out of the diplexer through the second port. Similarly, the symmetrical nature of the bandstop resonator arrangement also inhibits scattering of higher order modes and hence improves the performance of the diplexer.

    摘要: A diplexer (14) has a first rectangular waveguide (38) extending from a front port (16) to a back wall (70), the back wall having a rectangular opening (72) therein constituting a section of a second rectangular waveguide (20) and serving as a back port (18) of the diplexer. A first spectral region of electromagnetic power communicates between the front port and a side port (28), and a second spectral region of electromagnetic power communicates between the front port and the back port. A center frequency of the second spectral region is greater than a center frequency of the first spectral region by a factor greater than or equal approximately to two. The side port includes an aperture (126) disposed in a sidewall (42) of the first waveguide, a third waveguide (32), and a coupling element (128) extending from the third waveguide through the aperture into the first waveguide for coupling electromagnetic power at the first spectral region between the first and the third waveguides. Coupled resonators (112, 124) disposed within the third waveguide provide a bandpass filter characteristic at the first spectral region, and inhibit propagation of electromagnetic power at the second spectral region between the first and the second waveguides. Within the inner conductor are two spaced apart cylindrical elements (100, 112) constituting plates of a capacitor (102).
