output wave at port3 splits equally into port1 and port2 in phase as well as in
magnitude.
1. If two waves of equal magnitudes and the same phases are fed into port1
and port 2, the output at port 3 and port 4 will be zero.
2. If a wave is fed into port 4 (the H-arm) it will be divided equally between
port 1 and port 2 of the collinear arm and will not appear at port 3(E-arm).
3. If a wave is fed into port 3 (the E-arm) it will produce an output of equal
magnitude but opposite in phase at port 1 and port 2 and the output at
port 4 will be zero.
4. If a wave is fed into one of the collinear arms either at port1 or port2, it will
not appear in the other collinear arm at port2 or port1 because the E-arm
causes the phase delay while the H-arm causes a phase advance.

1.2.7 Microwave Isolator:
An Isolator is a non reciprocal transmission device that is used to isolate one
component from reflections of other components in the transmission line. Ideal
Isolator completely absorbs the power for propagation in one direction and provides
lossless transmission in the opposite direction. Thus the isolator is usually called
incline. Isolators are generally used to improve the frequency stability of microwave
generators such as klystrons and Magnetrons in which the reflection from the load
affects generating frequency.
1.2.8 Fixed Attenuator:
A Fixed Attenuator is for inserting a known attenuation in a wave guide system. It
consists of a wave inserted in a section of waveguide flanked on both sides. The
Fixed Attenuators are available in 3, 6 and 10 dB attenuation values.

The tuneable detector mount is simple and easy to the instrument, for detecting the
low frequency square wave modulated microwave signal. It consists of a crystal
detector mounted in a section of waveguide and output from the crystal may be fed
to an indicating instrument.

Theory:
The incident waves on the load from the generator are reflected. Unknown load
impedance can be determined either by using the formula or by using smith chart.
The unknown load impedance (ZL) is:
ZL = Zo ( 1- j (VSWR) tan(l) / VSWR jtan l
l = (X1 X2) .2 / g.
l = Electrical distance
Zo = Characteristic impedance = 50
X1 = all positions of standing was minimum with unknown load
impedance
X2 = position of standing wave minimum with the short circuit
termination.
g = guide wavelength. = 2(first min second min)
VSWR = Vmax/ Vmin
