Abstract
A polarized, mitered corner (32) is constructed using a multiple surface reflector in a square waveguide corner. The multiple surface reflector (34) provides a mitered corner having one effective miter size for the E-plane mode and a different effective miter size for the H-plane mode (42, 44). The surfaces may comprise ridges which are parallel to the E-field in one of the two modes, so that the ridges behave as the reflecting surface for that mode while the backplane, upon which the ridges are formed, serves as the reflecting surface for the other mode. An alternate embodiment wherein the two reflecting surface comprise a plurality of parallel wires, is also disclosed.
