Authored by three renowned experts in the field of microwave engineering, this volume explains and analyses modern multi-modal techniques for the design of waveguide components, based on multi-modal equivalent network representation. Divided into three sections, it comprehensively covers modal analysis of waveguides and cavities, presenting a number of basic waveguide junctions. It also describes specific applications in detail, including inductively coupled filters, lowpass filters, waveguide couplers and diplexers.
  • Presents an in-depth explanation and analysis of multi-mode techniques for the design of waveguide components, cavitism and irregular shapes
  • Includes sections that refer to applications of basic components and devices
  • Accompanying software is designed to assist the development of CAD tools, and is also compatible with each section of the book, allowing readers to input their own data
