Abstract :
A new accurate and simple equivalent circuit for circular E-plane bends in rectangular waveguide is shown. It can be used for any curvature radius and waveguide type. The experimental results shown in the letter agree well with the computed frequency programme. Moreover, a value of curvature radius that involves minimum input reflection over a given frequency band is calculated.
