Abstract

See full text

A phased-overmoded, tapered waveguide transition has a central section which is tapered linearly in the longitudinal direction and two end sections which are tapered curvilinearly in the longitudinal direction. One of the end sections and at least a portion of the other end section are overmoded and, therefore, give rise to higher order modes of the desired microwave signals propagated therethrough. The lineraly tapered central section shifts the phase of higher order modes generated at one end of the transition so that at least a major portion of such higher order modes is cancelled by higher order modes generated at the other end of the transition.
