Compact Simultaneous-Lobing Circuits

Abstract

A simultaneous-lobing (or monopulsing) system eliminates a major source of noise in automatic-tracking radar. Parallel-guide hybrids, of which the performance is readily explained by simple theory, provide the basis for compact and broadband r-f circuits for simultaneous lobing. With a view toward compact antenna-feed design, three types of guide coupling sections were studied: short slots in narrow wall of guide, staggered slots in narrow wall of guided, and perpendicular slots in broad wall of guide.
