COMPACT BIPOLARIZATION POWER SPLITTER, ARRAY OF A PLURALITY OF SPLITTERS, COMPACT RADIATING ELEMENT AND PLANAR ANTENNA COMPRISING SUCH A SPLITTER

摘要

A compact dual-polarization planar power splitter comprises at least four asymmetric orthomode transducers (OMTs) connected in an array suitable for being coupled in-phase to a dual orthogonal polarization feed source via two power distributors mounted perpendicularly in relation to one another, each power distributor comprising at least two lateral metal waveguides disposed parallel to one another, and a transverse metal waveguide coupled perpendicularly to the two lateral metal waveguides and four ends of the lateral waveguides coupled respectively to the four asymmetric OMTs.
