Abstract
A junction for orthogonally oriented waveguides including a transformation stage which has a first oblong opening for connecting a first waveguide which is designed to carry a first ground wave type, and a second oblong opening for connecting a second waveguide which is designed to carry a second ground wave type. The first oblong opening and the second oblong opening are oriented orthogonally with respect to each other. The transformation stage has an essentially right-angled geometry with a height, a width and a depth, where the height and the width are chosen such that both the first ground wave type and the second ground wave type are propagated in the transformation stage.
