Analysis of the dispersion characteristics of slow-wave structures with two microwave propagation channels

Models of rectangular and axially symmetric resonator slow-wave structures, which are built using transmission matrix for determining the characteristics of the slow-wave structures in different operation modes, are investigated. Elements of the transmission matrix are determined from the results of 3D simulation with the use of the HFSS software. In the analysis of the dispersion characteristics, slow-wave structures with two microwave propagation channels are studied and simulated using a 4×4 transmission matrix.

Variational analysis of the disc-loaded waveguide slow-wave structures

The variational method is applied to calculate the dispersion characteristics of disc-loaded waveguide slow-wave structures. The parameters describing the waveguide discontinuities in disc-loaded waveguide are calculated by the variational method. Then the dispersion characteristics of slow-wave structures are obtained using lossless microwave quadrupole theory. Good agreement was observed between results of the variational method and those of field matching method and high frequency structure simulator. In the case of broad band, results of the variational method are better than those of field matching method.
