Abstract :
The propagation of the electromagnetic wave in a gradual transducer is discussed. It is shown that the incident mode and the geometry of the transducer determine the outgoing mode. Inverting this theorem, a method is suggested for the design of the transducer´s surface for cases in which the desired modes in the uniform waveguides are given. The application of the method is illustrated in three examples.
