SCATTERING-THEORY OF CORRUGATED WAVE-GUIDES

By means of the boundary disturbance source method, the scattered held from a two-dimensional periodic arbitrary corrugated waveguide is inv estigated. A scattered electromagnetic field expression and a Bragg sc attering condition about TE and TM modes are found. As an example, the scattered field from a one-dimensional arbitrary corrugated waveguide in the axial direction is considered based on the general results. Th e characteristics of the Bragg reflector, mode converter, selective re sonator and so on can be derived by using the results obtained in this paper.
