Abstract
A wave receiving apparatus comprising a reflector; a conduit for guiding waves, having an open end allowing entrance of polarized waves reflected by the reflector; a septum polarizer monolithically formed with the conduit for effecting a circular-linear polarization conversion; a pair of signal collectors pointing to the same direction or towards each other and positioned at a distance of quarter-wavelength away from the rear end of the conduit for receiving wave signals; and a circuitry module, positioned sidelong next to said conduit seen from said open end into said conduit, to which the signal collectors are electrically connected for handling wave signals.
Claims14
A wave receiving apparatus, comprising:
- a conduit for guiding waves, said conduit having an open end allowing entrance of polarized waves and a rear end terminating said conduit;
- a septum polarizer monolithically formed with said conduit for effecting a circular-linear polarization conversion, said septum polarizer having a planar structure extending from said rear end of said conduit towards said open end of said conduit;
- a pair of L-shaped signal collectors located to opposite sides of said septum polarizer and pointing towards each other for receiving wave signals, both being positioned at a distance of quarter-wavelength away from said rear end of said conduit;
- and
- a circuitry module to which said pair of L-shaped signal collectors are electrically connected for handling wave signals, said circuitry module being positioned sidelong next to said conduit seen from said open end into said conduit.
A wave receiving apparatus, comprising:
- a conduit for guiding waves, said conduit having an open end allowing entrance of polarized waves and a rear end terminating said conduit;
- a septum polarizer monolithically formed with said conduit for effecting a circular-linear polarization conversion, said septum polarizer having a planar structure extending from said rear end of said conduit towards said open end of said conduit and dividing said conduit into two half-conduits having ends with differing depths;
- a pair of signal collectors pointing to the same direction and positioned respectively in said half-conduits at a distance of quarter-wavelength away from said respective ends of said conduits for receiving wave signals;
- and
- a circuitry module to which said pair of signal collectors are electrically connected for handling wave signals, said circuitry module being positioned sidelong next to said conduit seen from said open end into said conduit.
The wave receiving apparatus according to 7, wherein said pair of signal collectors are distanced less than half wavelength apart in said conduit longitudinally.
