Abstract

See full text

An advanced reverse orthomode junction feed assembly with associated filters for use in an antenna feed system for transmitting a first low frequency (LF) electromagnetic signal and receiving a second high frequency (HF) electromagnetic signal. The assembly includes, in a preferred square waveguide topology, an orthomode junction with an antenna port for connecting to a choking iris matching section and an antenna feed, an opposed generally coaxial first signal port to transmit the LF signal, and a generally perpendicular second signal port, located there between, to receive the HF signal. A first signal channel having fully asymmetric on-axis second signal reject filters connects to the first port; and a second signal channel having cross-axis first signal reject filters with multi-cavity HF path matching assembly connects to the second port. The use of a magic-tee as a combiner for the receive signal provides tracking capability to the antenna feed system.
