Abstract :
The eigenwaves orthogonality is investigated for the rectangular waveguide having a lossy dielectric slab inside it. It is shown analytically that eigenwaves of such waveguides are energetically non-orthogonal. The interaction of pair of non-orthogonal eigenwaves is discussed. The numerical estimation of their non-orthogonality has been carried out for the various slab dimensions, its permittivity and losses. Calculation results are presented.
