An Ortho Mode Transducer (OMT) comprising a main guide configured with a set of ports and at both ends for communicating a band of frequencies. The ports and are placed at a predetermined distance from each other to form a taper section. Branching waveguides are disposed around the main guide for extracting polarization signals from the main guide. Coupling apertures are disposed apart along the periphery of the main guide for coupling the branching waveguides to the main guide. The coupling apertures are aligned parallel to a longitudinal axis of the main guide and extended to the taper portion of the main guide, which enhances bandwidth performance without the need for additional extraneous impedance matching elements.
