Abstract

PURPOSE: To adjust the coupling degree of the waveguide crossing type coupler simply with high precision without deterioration in the VSWR. CONSTITUTION: An elastic plate 6 is fitted to an inner face of a waveguide 1 opposite to a coupling hole 3 of a coupling section and the elastic plate 6 is elastically deformed by turning a screw 5 externally. Thus, even when a short side length (b) of the coupling section is decreased to a length b', the coupling degree is changed (become dense) accordingly. The elastic plate 6 is changed tapered, the coupler acts like an impedance converter, no reflection is caused and the VSWR is not deteriorated.
