Abstract

We estimate the transmission efficiency of the electromagnetic wave through the system composed of waveguide and miter bend by Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulation. As the fisrt approach of this estimation, we choose the case that the input wave is TE11 mode. In this case, the efficiency is estimated as 99.65 % for the system without grooves and 76.48 % for the system with grooves (which is called as "corrugate"). Comparing the distributions of the input electric field with that of the output electric field, the effect of the grooves is found as follows: Because the TE11 mode has an anisotropy, its shape is changed by the miter bend. This property appears in the corrugated system more strongly than the non-corrugated system.
