A redundancy combiner assembly has two amplifiers connected in parallel along a waveguide path to a hybrid. The hybrid is connected through a transfer switch to an antenna. The hybrid contains a movable coupling plate. The coupling plate has a coupling array to allow combining of signals of the amplifiers in one position. When one of the amplifiers fails, the coupling plate is replaced by a metal wall and the output from the failed amplifier is directed by the switch lo a dump load while the output from the operating amplifier is directed to the antenna. The assembly is controlled by a controller, which monitors the amplifiers and controls the movement of the coupling plate and the switch.

Dispositif combineur à redondance, comprenant deux amplificateurs connectés en parallèle à un hybride sur un trajet de guide d'onde. L'hybride est connecté à une antenne par un commutateur. Il contient une plaque de couplage mobile. Celle-ci est dotée d'un réseau de couplage permettant de combiner les signaux des amplificateurs sur une position. Lorsqu'un des amplificateurs est défaillant, la plaque de couplage est remplacée par une paroi métallique et la sortie de l'amplificateur défaillant est dirigée par le commutateur vers une charge fictive tandis que la sortie de l'amplificateur opérationnel est dirigée vers l'antenne. Le dispositif est commandé par un contrôleur, qui contrôle les amplificateurs et commande le mouvement de la plaque de couplage et le commutateur.
