Abstract :
The fields and characteristic parameters of nonradiating modes of a dielectric-coated wire with an intervening airgap are derived using a surface impedance dyadic method. This method shows several advantages and provides a straightforward method for working out the characteristic equation, cutoff conditions, far-from-cutoff conditions and field coefficients. Important results about the hybrid nature of these modes are shown, and some of them are common to any cylindrical surface waveguide.
