Abstract :
Bethe´s small-hole coupling theory is applied to coaxial transmission line to design mode selective directional couplers. By independently sampling the TEM and TE11 modes in coaxial line, harmonic measurements can be performed which would require five or more directional couplers if made in rectangular waveguide. Mode selectivity on the order of 30 dB has been achieved.
