ABSTRACT:
A radar system having a common antenna for transmitting and receiving signals conventionally includes a branch duplexer which is bulky and inconvenient.
By using a waveguide section having an antenna port at one end and a receiver port at the other, and including a protection unit comprising p.i.n. diodes these difficulties are reduced. The diodes prevent transmitted energy from a magnetron reaching the receiver port but allow received energy, because of its lower amplitude, to pass.
