Abstract: A connector providing an offset interconnect has a dielectric body with first and second longitudinally opposed and laterally offset portions and an internal cavity. An offset electrically conductive path is disposed within the internal cavity. The offset electrically conductive path extends from the first portion of the dielectric body to the second portion of the dielectric body. A compressible conductor is disposed within the internal cavity in the second portion of the dielectric body.

Abstract: An offset flared radiator and probe assembly for radiating and receiving electromagnetic energy. The radiator includes a reflective resonator which is nonsymmetrical to the radiator axis, and is coupled to the flare slotline region by a bend and transverse slotline region. The transverse slotline region is of sufficient length to accommodate a probe also offset from, and parallel to the radiator axis. The probe has no bends to cause reflections. The junction between the probe and the transverse slot region provides a coupling region for the energy received at the flared radiator.
