Abstract
A flexible wave guide joint is located between a transceiver and oscillating antenna in a vehicular collision warning system. The flexible joint includes a multiple portion wave guide feed. One portion of the wave guide feed is fixed in position and coupled to the transceiver while another portion of the wave guide feed is coupled to the moving antenna. The wave guide feed portions are separated by an air gap to permit oscillation of the antenna relative to the transceiver.
