SOME INVESTIGATIONS ON DIELECTRIC ROD WAVEGUIDE -PART II

Abstract

Maximum power carrying capacity of a dielectric rod waveguide for e,=2.6 and d=2.54 cms has been calculated for H01, E01 and HE11 modes. For the HE11 mode the variation of the maximum power carrying capacity of the dielectric rod waveguide with its diameter has been studied. The radial decay of the electric field  outside the dielectric rod waveguide and the guide wavelength yg  of the waveguide have been experimentally measured at y0 =3.2 cms when the dielectric rod waveguide is excited in HE11 mode.
