A generic approach to excite TEn0 (n ≥ 1) modes in a rectangular waveguide for confocal gyro-devices is proposed. The exciter consists of a 3 dB H-plane power divider (n ≥ 3) and a mode-converting section. The injection power is split into two in-phase signals with equal amplitudes which simultaneously excite the secondary waveguide via two sets of multiple slots. Both the position and width of the slot are symmetrically distributed with respect to the center line for each set of slots. The slot width complies with a geometry sequence, with adjacent slots being spaced a quarter wavelength apart to cancel the backward wave out. A TE40 mode exciter at 100 GHz is numerically simulated and optimized, achieving a 1 dB and a 3 dB transmission bandwidth of 18.2 and 21 GHz, respectively. The prototype is fabricated and measured. The cold test is carried out utilizing two identical back-to-back connected mode exciters, and the measured performances are in good agreement with the numerical simulation results when taking into account the wall loss and assembly tolerance.
