Abstract
An orthogonal-mode junction coupler and an associated polarization and frequency separator, the junction coupler comprises three opening slots, referred to as coupling slots, which are made in the casing of the coupler and pass through a plane referred to as transverse with respect to the junction coupler. Two of the three coupling slots are aligned along a first axis referred to as transverse with respect to the junction coupler, the section of the two coupling slots being of the same dimensions and of the same orientation. The two coupling slots are configured to be coupled to one of the two orthogonal linear polarizations. The third coupling slot is situated on a second axis referred to as transverse with respect to the junction coupler, the second transverse axis being substantially orthogonal with respect to the first transverse axis.
