Abstract
The stopbands of the first-order Bragg interaction in a parallel-plate waveguide having multiperiodic wall undulations are investigated via the perturbation method of multiple scales. For a structure having two periods, the first-order Bragg interaction Involves two as well as three coupled modes. Transition curves separating passbands from stopbands are found for all possible interactions. The effect of the multiple periodicity in the structure is found to be an increased band-width for the attenuation band as well as considerable attenuation throughout the band owing to the Increased number of Interactions. This is useful for the design of multichannel narrow-band microwave filters. The analysis is carried out for the first three dominant modes of the structure.
