Waveguide structure for switching electromagnetic waves between several gateways

摘要

Structure characterised by several first contiguous rectangular waveguides and a second rectangular waveguide laid out on the first waveguides with its longitudinal axis which extends transversely to the longitudinal direction of the said first contiguous waveguides, the cavity of each of the first waveguides communicating with the cavity of the second waveguide via a resonant coupling slot whose longitudinal axis makes a predetermined angle with the longitudinal axis of the corresponding first waveguide. Each of the coupling slots along the longitudinal axis of the second waveguide is oriented perpendicularly to the adjacent slots. The invention is used in the field of telecommunications. <IMAGE>
