Abstract
Aspects of the disclosed technology provide solutions for splitting power between different parts of a waveguide. Features inside of a waveguide may include an input and interconnected vertical and horizontal hollow spaces (i.e. channels). Other features may include structures (i.e. septum features) that reflect a portion of electromagnetic energy moving in a channel and may allow another portion of that electromagnetic (EM) energy to pass around those septum features. A horizontal channel of a waveguide may lead to several vertical channel of the waveguide and the septum features may reflect EM energy toward one particular vertical channel such that an amount of EM energy output from that particular vertical channel may be increased as compared to amounts of EM energy output from other vertical channels of the waveguide. Geometries of the waveguide features may focus emitted EM energy by splitting the EM energy into several different parts.
