Abstract :
An efficient method for the determination of the scattering matrix of TE11-to-HE11 corrugated cylindrical waveguide mode converters has been developed, based on the representation of the fields inside the corrugations by a small number of radial waveguide modes. Numerical results show that the method, when compared to the usual mode-matching techniques, reduces the computation time without loss of accuracy
