Abstract
The excitation must match with the mode patterns when computing cut-of f frequencies of waveguides by 2D-FDTD method. This paper analyzed the exciting effect of electric sheet sources, filament sources and point sources and gave the design method of excitation in rectangular waveg uides for computing cut-off frequencies by 2D-FDTD. By this method all of the cut-off frequencies of lower order modes can be found.
