Abstract
The present disclosure relates to compact waveguides. One example includes a primary bar, and an impedance-matched series of secondary bars with a number of turns, where turns provide at least one of: a turn that is perpendicular to an immediately preceding turn, and an increase in length of a subset of secondary bars for the turn.
Claims20
A compact waveguide, comprising:
- a primary bar;
- and
- an impedance-matched series of secondary bars that is impedance-matched with the primary bar at a connection point that joins at least one secondary bar of the impedance-matched series of secondary bars to the primary bar, wherein a respective turn of a plurality of turns of the compact waveguide corresponds to at least one of:
- a turn that is perpendicular to an immediately preceding turn, and an increase in length of a subset of the secondary bars for the respective turn.

A method, comprising:
- monitoring, by a controller device, at least one waveform propagating in a waveguide comprising:
- a primary bar, and an impedance-matched series of secondary bars that is impedance-matched with the primary bar, wherein a respective turn of a plurality of turns of the impedance-matched series of secondary bars corresponds to at least one of:
- a turn that is perpendicular to an immediately preceding turn, and an increase in length of a subset of the secondary bars for the respective turn;
- and
- generating, by the controller device, a measurement based at least in part on at least one parameter of the at least one waveform.
