Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19856334A1] Disclosed is a waveguide switch having a stator and a moveable electroconductive element. Said stator is provided with waveguide paths (12, 23, 43, 41) located between the waveguide gates (1 to 4). Said waveguide paths can be switched using said moveable element (8) so that they remain permeable or impermeable to high-frequency waves. The moveable element is configured as a septum (8) in a slit (7) of the stator in order to simplify production tolerances. Said moveable element extends in the respective impermeably switched waveguide path and is parallel to the E-plane thereto. Said moveable element divides the waveguide path in two parallel subwaveguides which are provided with smaller cutoff wavelengths compared to the waveguide path which is switched in a permeable state.
