ABSTRACT:
A polarized signal receiver waveguide assembly, or feedhorn, for receiving a selected one of linearly polarized electromagnetic signals in one waveguide of circular cross-section and for launching or transmitting the selected signal into a second waveguide, the axes of the waveguides being disposed at a right angle. The first waveguide has a closed end wall, formed as a hemispherical cavity having a hemispherical concave surface. A probe comprising a signal receiver portion disposed in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the first waveguide and a launch or transmitter portion having its axis perpendicular to the axis of the second waveguide has its launch or transmitter portion mounted in a controllably rotatable dielectric rod, such that rotation of the rod causes rotation of the signal receiver portion for alignment with a selected one of the polarized signals. The transmission line between the probe signal receiver portion and launch or transmitter portion consists of a single curvilinear conductor extending over a ninety degree arc parallel to and in close proximity to the hemispherical concave surface of the first waveguide end wall, or, alternatively, of a pair of bifurcated curvilinear branches forming a one-hundred eighty degree arc disposed along the axis of the first waveguide in close proximity to and parallel to the end wall hemispherical surface. The two waveguides are cast as a single-piece.
