Abstract
A duo-quad wideband wave guide combiner includes a circular waveguide having a center axis with a cross section with four quadrants; and two waveguides, each waveguide being bifurcated at an input to the wave guide combiner by a thin septum to split each of the two waveguide into two bifurcated waveguides, each of the bifurcated waveguides rotating to a respective one of the four quadrants about the center axis of the circular waveguide with converging walls terminating when a composite cross section becomes circular.
