Abstract: A power divider includes an input port, a first output port, a second output port, a first transformer coupled between the input port and the first output port, and a second transformer coupled between the input port and the second output port. The first and second transformers each incorporates a low pass filter. The power divider further includes a ground plate disposed adjacent to the first and second transformers. The ground plate is capacitively coupled to the low pass filters of the first and second transformers for enhancing the low pass filtering characteristics of the power divider. The power divider provides low pass filtering capability while achieving a significant size reduction over conventional power dividers.

Abstract: An inductive strip waveguide band-pass filter includes a conductive movable wall which can be set to various positions to allow a varying "A" dimension, thereby setting controllably the center frequency of the filter over a predetermined range. If the inductive strip filter includes multiple synchronized resonant cavities, the resonant cavities remain synchronized for all positions of the movable wall. The position of the movable wall can be set manually or by a motorized control mechanism.

Abstract: A variable line extender for wave guide comprising an elongated electrically conductive housing member and an electrically conductive slide member, the slide member having a convex shaped rounded end and a U-shaped recess extending transversely continuously from one end of the slide longitudinally along one side thereof, around the rounded end, and then along the other side back to the first end, with said housing having a pair of wave guide shaped ports in register with the U-shaped recess of the slide member. Means are provided for adjusting the relative longitudinal position of the slide with respect to the housing so as to vary the length of the path between the ports.
