Simulation of wave propagation in waveguide tee junctions

Abstract

In order to understand the behaviour of any microwave component, knowledge of electromagnetic (EM) field distribution inside the component is necessary. In this paper simulation of wave propagation in waveguide tees at X-band is presented in dominant mode. Pattern of electric field from front view, side view, and front and top view of magnetic field for dominant mode in rectangular waveguide is presented. Configuration of electric, magnetic field and power distribution at different time instants in microwave tees is explained. Power distribution and isolation property in E-H plane tee are also described.
