Abstract
A waveguide coupler includes a waveguide having a first and a second port, and a slot formed in a broadwall of the waveguide between the first and second ports, the slot centered on the first broadwall. A plurality of shifted waveguide sections are arranged between the first and second ports and extend along a length of the waveguide. A parallel-plate transmission line structure is coupled to the slot, wherein RF signals within one of the waveguide or the parallel-plate transmission line are communicated to the other of the waveguide and the parallel-plate transmission line through the slot.
