MODE GENERATOR DEVICE FOR A SATELLITE ANTENNA SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention is related to a device for generating waveguide modes for use in a feed horn of a satellite antenna system, said waveguide modes comprising at least one excitation mode of higher order than the fundamental mode, said device comprising a waveguide containing a first waveguide section with at least three longitudinal slots extending in the inner side of said waveguide, characterised in that said waveguide contains a second waveguide section with at least three longitudinal slots extending in said inner side of said waveguide.
