Abstract :
The generalized network formulation for aperture problems has been applied to the electromagnetic coupling among corrugated circular horns. For the interior and exterior problems, two different techniques have been used, mode matching and integral equation with a moment method solution, respectively. A comparison between numerical results and measurements is provided.
