Hello I am a waveguide enthusiast. I have been designing my own waveguide technology, which includes resonant cavities, optical coupling, slotted line antenna, grounding planes etc... However I am building an energy conversion system vs. a communications device by using the waveguide antenna to excite capacitors in a tank circuit, which discharge across a set of spark gap electrodes that I then use to excite a twin set of radio cavities, which energize a bank of huge plate capacitors, impedance matching is via a set of spiral antennas connected to a delta antenna set in parabolic reflector dish.
I built a model of the device unfortunately the waveguide is a hack job, thou I do get a signal from 100-180 MHz on the frequency counter, and my transformer is pretty crappy too as I don't have the where with all to obtain the correct sized ferrite beads for my matrix transformer, so I just put the beads on a single loop and laid the two secondary along side the ferrite beads. I did try energizing the then with a HV ion emitter source though and all of the components would light a fluorescent bulb when near of touching any of the components in the circuit.
Just wondering if you would want to help out by discussing waveguide concepts. I have tried to discus these concepts in other forums but they seem to think that I am building a device that will misappropriate energy from the local TV or Radio transmission towers but this just is not the case in fact I am tuning to the atomic transition frequency and not the local transmission towers.
btw Anyone know if a waveguide antenna can be inductively coupled to a transformer? :unsure:
Thank you
