QuinStar Technologys QMT series TE01 to TE10 mode transitions are
available for operation from 18.0 to 140.0 GHz. These reciprocal devices have a standard
rectangular TE10 mode waveguide input and a circular waveguide TE01mode output. Because of
the larger frequency ranges of rectangular waveguide when compared to a circular TE01 mode
waveguide, it is possible for a mode transition with a rectangular waveguide input to have
one of several different circular waveguide size outputs, depending on frequency range of
interest.
The QMT series
circular mode waveguide features low VSWR and low insertion loss. The flanges used for
circular waveguide output are QuinStars standard male/female type. For maximum mode
purity, mode filters are recommended. |
The QMT series rectangular-to-circular waveguide transitions are useful in
millimeter wave radar systems or laboratory setups where long transmission lines are
required. These transitions will provide efficient conversion from the TE10 rectangular
waveguide mode to the TE 01 circular waveguide mode for high-power low-loss transmission. |
