  • Patent number: 4931747
    Abstract: A microwave power amplifier which divides the microwave input signal into a plurality of equal segments with each segment being transmitted through a separate amplifying circuit. Each segment is then supplied into a combiner chamber with these signals being recombined and being transmitted in the ambient through an outlet chamber. Incorporated with the amplifier are a plurality of sockets which are removably attached to the amplifier housing. Each socket is to connect between the signal divider chamber and the signal combiner chamber of the amplifier housing with each socket functioning to receive and amplify a signal.

  • Patent number: 4862187
    Abstract: A feedhorn for a satellite dish which is far more efficient picking up the transmitted microwave signal from a satellite so as to permit the satellite dish to be substantially decreased in physical size. The feedhorn is constructed to pick up either the C-Band or the Ku-Band, each in either the horizontally polarized mode or the vertically polarized mode. The feedhorn utilizes dipoles for picking up the microwave signal which are then transmitted by a coaxial cable to a printed circuit board assembly. The received signal from the printed circuit board assembly is then transmitted through a receiver. The selection of the particular band of frequency that is to be transmitted from the feedhorn and the selection of the horizontal mode or the vertical mode is to be accomplished by a remote actuator such as is commonly used with a conventional television receiver.
