Abstract
A novel method is proposed for the analysis of transients in dielectri c guide, e.g., when excited by a gaussian beam pulsed in time and modu lated by a cosine waveform. This approach, utilizing the full modal sp ectrum of the guide, results more reliable than existing numerical tec hniques, while, by virtue of its analytical nature, greatly reducing t he computational complexity of the problem.
