  • Abstract
    The operating performance of a GyroTWA is partially limited by the bandwidths of its input and output waveguide windows which are constrained by the presence of Ghost modes caused by mode conversion within the window assemblies. This paper discusses the work performed in re-designing the window assemblies such that they satisfy the extended bandwidth requirements of a new GyroTWA.
