A transmitting and receiving structure for high power applications

A high-power-capacity transmitting and receiving structure (TRS) is proposed. It has the ability of transmitting the GW-level high power microwave from the microwave sources with the horizontal polarized TE11 mode and receiving the microwave signal from the target with the orthogonal polarized TE11 mode. It is realized by the cooperation of a polarization-isolation-structure (PIS) and a two-way circular TE11 mode to rectangular TE10 mode power divider. Simulation shows that from 9.65 to 9.71 GHz, its power capacity is more than 3 GW at the transmitting format. The transmitting and receiving channel have an isolation of 60 dB which can prevent the receivers connecting to the receiving channel suffering from breakdown. The insertion losses for the transmitting and receiving format are both less than 0.03 dB.
