Abstract
The model of R. Gerlach et al. (ibid., vol.20, no.8, p.948-63, 1984) is generalized to analyze waveguide laser resonators with curved mirrors and multiple waveguide modes. The analytical expressions obtained permit a considerable computation time reduction and allow a systematic study of the influence of different parameters. As a result, the existence of new structures with low losses appears to be possible.<>
