Abstract: | A mode-matching scheme for the analysis of concentric circular and/or coaxial waveguide step discontinuities is proposed in this paper. An analytical evaluation of the involved coupling integrals for all possible discontinuities formed by any combination of a circular and a coaxial waveguide is performed. The originality mainly concerns the multimode excitation and scattering at a circular-to-coaxial waveguide step junction. Numerical results for a number of applications are compared against those of other techniques and/or measurements and are found to be in good agreement |
