This paper presents the analysis of an offset cross slot in the broad wall of a rectangular waveguide. The problem is formulated in teens of integro-differential equation which is solved using the method of moments with triangular Roop-top basis. For the effective numerical intgral evaluation, the Ewald sum technique is applied to the Green's function of the rectangular waveguide, transforming them into the rapidly convergent form. We have shown that a pair of narrow slots crossed at arbitrary angles and located at the proper point in the broad wall of an ordinary rectangular waveguide will radiate a wave very nearly circularly polarized at the desired direction.
