Abstract:In the present paper we present in detail a new and improved version of the method of perturbative equivalence between the propagation characteristics of lossless trapezoidal cross-section waveguides and of rectangular crosssection waveguides. The analysis is carried out within the framework of perturbation theory, and to the first order we develop a very simple geometrical argument that allows one to construct for any given waveguide with trapezoidal cross-section an equivalent waveguide with rectangular cros… Show more
