Abstract
In a radial power combiner/divider in which radial slots are provided for suppression of undesired modes, certain undesired modes which are not adequately suppressed by the radial slots are allowed to be propagated in a central coaxial transmission line and suppressed therein by means of longitudinal slots in the outer conductor. In an alternative embodiment, the central transmission line of the combiner/divider is in the form of a circular waveguide, and the suppression means comprises thin, spaced coaxial cylinders of dissipative material.
