PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a waveguide twist to be easily produced by a general-purpose machine tool, as well as reduce the size of the waveguide twist. SOLUTION: By utilizing the property that electromagnetic waves can be transmitted by inserting a cubiod-shaped cavity 31 tilted at an angle of half the twist/ turn angle, the electromagnetic waves are made to turned about the traveling direction axis. The size of the cube-shaped cavity 31 inserted is as small as being one fifth to one sixth of the electromagnetic wavelength and is therefore easy to produce. Further, size reduction is possible by integrating the cavity with a flange of the waveguide. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
