Abstract

When a rectangular waveguide is in free space, the waveguide’s characteristics and field distribution for different modes are computed using HFSS software. The analysis is performed for several parameters. The electric and magnetic field intensities, as well as the fundamental modal distributions, are investigated within a rectangular waveguide. Simulated analysis for the X-band is performed on a single size that has dimensions of 22.76, 10.15, 0.2, and 60 mm for breadth, width, wall thickness, and waveguide lengths. The performance of the rectangular waveguide is examined together with characteristic profiles. The waveguide is simulated, and the outcomes are confirmed. An HFSS (High Frequency Structural Simulator) simulation platform is shown in the figure for the analysis of aperture radiation from a rectangular waveguide made of dielectric material or air.

13.1 Background

For distinct kinds of waves, there are many waveguide types. The most common and original denotation is a hollow metallic conductor tube used to convey radio waves, notably microwaves (µ-waves). At higher radio frequencies, dielectric waveguides are employed, ...
