Abstract

See full text

In an example embodiment, an in-phase recombinant waveguide combiner/divider device can comprise: a single waveguide input; N waveguide outputs, wherein N is an integer greater than 2; a first waveguide dividing portion; a second waveguide dividing portion; a third waveguide dividing portion; and a waveguide combining portion. The waveguide combining portion can be configured to combine two signals that are each respectively received from the second waveguide dividing portion and third waveguide dividing portion. In general an in-phase recombinant waveguide combiner/divider can comprise more junctions than output ports of a conservative power divider network structure. In an example embodiment, for a N-way waveguide power divider, there can be at least N+1 waveguide junctions.
