An over-the-air measurement system for performing over-the-air measurements on a device under test is described. The measurement system comprises a measurement device having several measurement antennas, several waveguides, wherein at least one waveguide is assigned to each measurement antenna, several waveguide-to-cable adapters, and a positioning unit assigned to the measurement antennas. The number of the waveguide-to-cable adapters is at least identical to the number of the measurement antennas. The positioning unit is configured to move the measurement antennas with respect to the waveguide-to-cable adapters.

Over-the-air measurement system

A multi-band orthomode transducer device comprises a three-dimensional housing. The three-dimensional housing encompasses at least two orthomode transducers, each orthomode transducer being assigned to three ports of which a first port relates to a first polarization, a second port relates to a second polarization and a third port relates to a combination of the first and second polarizations. Each of the orthomode transducers has a waveguide connected with the three ports. The waveguides of the orthomode transducers are located in the three-dimensional housing without intersecting each other.

Multi-band orthomode transducer device

An integrated device comprises a horn antenna with an antenna waveguide feed, a waveguide transition element comprising a first end connected to the antenna waveguide feed and second end, and an orthomode transducer comprising a common waveguide connected to the second end of the waveguide transition element and at least two separate waveguides. The orthomode transducer is adapted to couple at least two orthogonal linear polarized fields into the common waveguide of the orthomode transducer with the aid of the at least two separate waveguides of the orthomode transducer and/or vice versa. The horn antenna is preferably adapted to support at least two waveguide modes corresponding to the at least two orthogonal linear polarized fields. The integrated device is preferably manufactured in at least two separate blocks such that each part of the at least two piece assembly is constructed as external protrusions and/or holes and/or partial holes.

Integrated device and manufacturing method thereof

A power directional coupler is described which comprises two hollow conductors and a separation wall. Said separation wall has a coupling portion which comprises several holes which are arranged in said separation wall such that a high hole-wall relation is obtained, ensuring a good coupling at a small size of said power directional coupler. Further, a combiner and a method for manufacturing said power directional coupler and a combiner are described.
