Abstract :
We evaluate the possibility of using a finline ortho-mode transducer (OMT) at millimeter wavelengths. A finline OMT has low loss, low cross-polarization, and good return loss over a full waveguide band. We propose a novel finline OMT structure for millimeter-wavelengths and present results at X-band
