An n-way waveguide power divider (11) is disclosed wherein microwave power entering a first waveguide section (13) is directionally coupled simultaneously into a plurality of parallel waveguide sections (17, 19, 21, 23) that share a longitudinal portion (17c, 19c, 21c, 23c) of their broad walls (17a, 19a, 21a, 23a) with a different longitudinal portion of the broad walls (25) of the first waveguide section (13). The power is coupled through an individual pair of elongated axially aligned coupling members (31a, 31b, 33a, 33b, 35a, 35b, 37a, 37b) in each of the shared broad wall longitudinal portions (17c, 19c, 21c, 23c). The coupling members (31a, 31b, 33a, 33b, 35a, 35b, 37a, 37b) may have a variety of shapes including square, rectangular, circular, cross, or dog bone shapes. <IMAGE> |
