Abstract

A waveguide type power combining/dividing unit W includes a plurality of rectangular waveguides 1 for TE10 mode disposed in a radial pattern, a circular waveguide 2 for TM01 mode disposed at a center of the radial pattern, in which one ends of the plurality of the rectangular waveguides 1 are connected to a side surface of one end of the circular waveguide.

Claims (30)

1. A waveguide type power combining/dividing unit comprising:

a plurality of rectangular waveguides for TE10 mode disposed in a radial pattern; and

a circular waveguide for TM01 mode disposed at a center of a surface of the radial pattern so as to extend orthogonally to the radial pattern,

wherein one ends of the plurality of rectangular waveguides are connected to a side surface of one end part of the circular waveguide,

wherein either or both of the width of H-planes and the width of E-planes of the rectangular waveguides are reduced from the other end part of the rectangular waveguides toward one end part connected to the circular waveguide in the rectangular waveguide, and

wherein a ridge is provided in one or both of the H-planes.

2. The waveguide type power combining/dividing unit according to claim 1 ,

wherein a groove extending in a direction same as an axial direction of the circular waveguide is formed in an inner wall of the circular waveguide, and

wherein a radio wave absorber is attached to the groove.

3. The waveguide type power combining/dividing unit according to claim 1 ,

wherein a mode converter for converting TM01 mode to TE10 mode is connected to the other end of the circular waveguide.

4. A waveguide type power combining/dividing unit comprising:

a plurality of rectangular waveguides for TE10 mode disposed in a radial pattern; and

a circular waveguide for TM01 mode disposed at a center of the radial pattern so as to extend orthogonally to a surface of the radial pattern,

wherein one ends of the plurality of rectangular waveguides are connected to a side surface of one end of the circular waveguide,

wherein either or both of the width of H-planes and the width of E-planes of the rectangular waveguides are reduced from the other ends of the rectangular waveguides toward one ends connected to the circular waveguide in the rectangular waveguides,

wherein a ridge is provided in one or both of the H-planes,

wherein a groove extending in a direction same as an axial direction of the circular waveguide is formed in an inner wall of the circular waveguide,

wherein a radio wave absorber is attached to the groove, and

wherein a mode converter for converting TM01 mode to TE10 mode is connected to the other end of the circular waveguide.

5. A waveguide type power combining/dividing unit comprising:

a plurality of rectangular waveguides for TE10 mode disposed in a radial pattern; and

a circular waveguide for TM01 mode disposed at a center of a surface of the radial pattern so as to extend orthogonally to the radial pattern,

wherein one ends of the plurality of rectangular waveguides are connected to a side surface of one end part of the circular waveguide, and

wherein either or both of the width of H-planes and the width of E-planes of the rectangular waveguides are reduced from the other end part of the rectangular waveguides toward one end part connected to the circular waveguide in the rectangular waveguide.

6. A waveguide type power combining/dividing unit comprising:

a plurality of rectangular waveguides for TE10 mode disposed in a radial pattern; and

a circular waveguide for TM01 mode disposed at a center of a surface of the radial pattern so as to extend orthogonally to the radial pattern,

wherein one ends of the plurality of rectangular waveguides are connected to a side surface of one end part of the circular waveguide, and

wherein a ridge is provided in one or both of the H-planes.
