Abstract :
Analysis of the serpentine folded-waveguide slow-wave structure was carried out using elliptical conformal transformation, for the dispersion and interaction impedance characteristics of the structure. The results obtained from the present analysis were compared with those from 3D electromagnetic simulation using MAFIA.
