Abstract

A numerical evaluation is conducted of electric field distributions, phase constants, and attenuation constants of the lowest eigenmode in the general class of uniformly bent circular hollow waveguides. The analysis is based on a scalar equation, and numerical results are compared with those of existing approximate theories. Normalized forms of attenuation constants are presented for the parallel and perpendicular polarizations to the bending plane by using structural and material parameters. For sharply bent waveguides, useful and simple expressions are derived for the attenuation constants of the TE and TM modes in the corresponding slab geometry with suitable weighting parameters. >
