Abstract

A compact four-way transducer (FWT) is provided for a microwave communications system. The compact FWT is a compact assembly that is configured to process microwave signals in dual-polarization antenna feeds and to provide single polarized signals for four communications channels. The compact FWT includes four terminals facing different directions at one end for receiving/sending single polarized signals, and a terminal at an opposite end for receiving/sending dual polarized signals.
