교차도파관 방향성결합기는 결합도가 증가함에 따라 방향성이 감소하는 특성을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 교차도파관 방향성결합기의 방향성을 향상시킬 수 있도록 X형 슬롯 쌍의 구조 변수를 수정하고, 그에 따른 관계식을 제안하였다. 그리고 K밴드 주파수 대역에서 그 관계식을 토대로 설계된 교차도파관 방향성결합기는 WR42 도파관을 사용하여 제작하였다. 측정한 결과 WR42 주파수 대역인 $18GHz{\sim}26.5GHz$에서 평균 결합도는 21.05dB, 방향성은 최소 23.9dB로 나타났다.

This paper presents a full-wave, moment method analysis of a Moreno directional coupler with tow crossed-slots between two crossed rectangular waveguides. the overall structure is divided into several rectangular waveguides and cavities by the use of the equivalence principle to the complex slot regions. this enables a simple and efficient analysis involving the well-known retangular waveguide/cavity Green's functions. For a numerically efficient simulation, the roof-top basis expansion and line testing is used and an acceleration technique is applied to the series summation in the Green's functions. The numerical results are compared with the measurements to verify the correctness of the present analysis.

In this paper, the directional coupler for Ku-band, which is designed is of the crossguide type with a coupling value of about 3-dB. The apertures chosen for this design are crosses. We used polynomial approximations of rounded end slot to obtain the electric and magnetic polarizability of crossed-slot and compared the results with Cohn's experimental results. The optimized dimensions and positions of the cross aperture are obtained by a trial-and-error reiteration of the program. This paper presents the measurement results for the designed coupler. The very flat coupling shows a total variation of only 29.80$\pm$0.04dB for the design frequency ranges of 12.25GHz-12.75GHz. The measured minimum directivity is 25dB. The aperture attenuation for the finite diaphragm thickness is about 2dB pr 0.5mm, which is in agreement with the theoretical value. The transmission loss and input return loss at center frequency are 0.0564dB and 48.16dB respectively. We obtained the measured minimum directivity of the coupler. Whose apertures are both circles is better than that containing holes in the performance of directivity.
