Abstract :
The Helmholtz equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions is rigorously solved using the Method of Analytical Regularization. The algorithm is applied to analyze the higher modes of the TM-polarized wave propagating in various types of transmission lines. The transmission line is represented by the infinitely long shielded structure containing N arbitrary shaped cylinders with dielectric filling between them. The influence of the both inner conductors´ number and shape on the cut-off waveguide number is examined.
