Abstract
A first group of electrically conductive sheets are mounted within a first rectangular waveguide that is connected to a signal power source. A second group of electrically conductive sheets are mounted within a second rectangular waveguide that is connected to a load. The sheets divide corresponding parts of the first and second waveguides into first and second pluralities of smaller waveguides, respectively. Each one of the first smaller waveguides is coupled to an associated one of a plurality of amplifiers at the input thereof. Each one of the second smaller waveguides is coupled to an associated one of the amplifiers at the output thereof. The first smaller waveguides cause power from the signal source to be divided into parts that are amplified by the amplifiers. The second smaller waveguides couple energy from the amplifiers to the load via the second waveguide whereby the amplified power is combined and provided to the load.
