Application of Waveguide Microwave Fixed Attenuators

Application of Waveguide Microwave Fixed Attenuators

Microwave attenuators, passive waveguide components, are for controlling microwave power amount transferred from one point to another on a microwave transmission line. Based on detailed requirements, there're 2 options. Whatever power is coming if you want to attenuate either the energy is reflected or consumed. The energy has absorbed the energy in some dissipative components. For microwave region applications, there are 2 types including fixed and variable, fixed means a fixed attenuation will always be offered from the device and variable obviously means it can change as many attenuations you want.
