Abstract: Disclosed are a waveguide type signal attenuator for attenuating an input signal as desired and a waveguide type signal terminator for making an input signal be utterly disappeared, where a manufacturing-easy resistor sheet is inserted into the center area, along which a traveling electromagnetic wave has the maximum intensity, of the signal attenuator and the signal terminator. In the signal terminator and the signal attenuator, a predetermined part of the waveguide which is formed in a lower conductive plate is expanded out along the half-height plane of the waveguide to form a resistor sheet setting groove and a portion of the elongated cavity positioned behind the resistor sheet setting groove forms a lower half of the waveguide. In addition, a resistor sheet is inserted between the resistor sheet setting groove and a protrusion part which protrudes from an upper conductive plate, of the half-height of the waveguide holds the resistor sheet to form an upper half portion of the waveguide.
Abstract: A non-radiative dielectric (NRD) waveguide modulator is provided having a waveguide type hybrid coupler, in which by forming a waveguide type 180° hybrid coupler and waveguide as a single body, the structure is simplified and manufacturing processes are reduced. The NRD waveguide modulator includes a conducting housing having a lower conducting plate and an upper conducting plate; a hybrid coupler which is processed in the form of conduit lines inside the conducting housing and includes a ring portion and a plurality of waveguides extended from the ring portion in the radial direction, in modulator, and a termination which is connected to an isolation port that is an end of any one waveguide of the hybrid coupler and terminates a signal reflected by the modulator by consuming the signal internally.
