Abstract: The invention relates to a device for transmission and/or reception of signals. It comprises a first waveguide (9) for the reception/transmission of signals and a second waveguide (23) for the transmission of a signal originating from an oscillator of the reception board, for example, to the transmission board. Particular application to the field of broadcasting signals exchanged between a station and a dwelling, in the scope of the MMDS, LMDS or MVDS, or between a satellite and a dwelling, in the scope of a satellite telecommunications system.

Abstract: A microwave polarizer particularly in a system for coupling energy between a waveguide and a transmission line. The polarizer reduces cross polarization by means of the probes being adjusted to an input impedance of less than 50 ohms, in particular to 20 ohms, by reducing the penetration depth of the probes. The smaller penetration depth also increases the distance between the two probes, which reduces cross polarization.

Abstract: A radio frequency converter includes a plurality of signal paths for simultaneously processing two RF signals in the same band but with different polarizations, each of which includes a mixer and an oscillator. A common resonator is connected to the frequency control terminal of each of the oscillators and the oscillators work in a push-push configuration.
