ABSTRACT:
A variable microwave power divider which includes an orthomode transducer having a first section capable of supporting a vertically polarized wave and a second section capable of supporting two orthogonal linearly polarized waves. Suitable probes for inserting or extracting RF energy are coupled to each section. A similar orthomode transducer is connected to the first transducer through a circular hollow waveguide with the transducers being angularly offset from one another a predetermined angular amount. A septum is positioned within the waveguide which is fixed thereto at one end with the other end being controlled to a predetermined spiral configuration in order to direct RF energy flowing through the waveguide to the sections of one transducer in a determinable manner.
