Abstract :
A stub waveguide power divider is considered as a basic unit of the cell for thermoprocessing of lossy material placed in the region of coupling of its second channel. It is shown that excitation of the second channel with the help of the stub waveguiding bifurcations, located equidistantly or nonequidistantly on the common wide wall, allow the simplification of its matching with the microwave generator. Experimental investigations confirm the theoretical approaches
