Abstract :
The authors present a unified approach to the analysis of ridged waveguides by a magnetic field integral equation (MFIE) formulation. The MFIE approach allows an accurate and complete solution via a simple numerical implementation of pulse basis functions. The emphasis in the present work is on the design of ridged waveguides for applications in microwave components and systems, rather than on details of numerical algorithms. The proposed theory is verified by comparison with exact closed-form solutions and other published results.<>
