Abstract
By means of the coupled mode theory and transfer matrix technique, a method is presented for analyzing the bending coupling between straight and bent rectangular waveguides, or between two bent rectangular waveguides. Calculations show that an effective coupling region exists around the central coupling point, in which the bending coupling appears, beyond which the bending coupling is very weak, and the propagation power in each waveguide becomes constant. When the bending radius becomes larger or the central coupling gap becomes smaller, this effective coupling region becomes wider, in which the coupling behavior becomes stronger.
