RECTANGULAR DIELECTRIC ROD AT MICROWAVE FREQUENCIES-PART I.THEORETICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL DETERMINATION OF LAUNCHING EFFICIENCY.

T K SEN, R CHATTERJEE

Abstract


The launching efficiency of surface-waves on a rectangular dielectric rod excited by a rectangular metal waveguide is derived theoretically. Experimental results for launching efficiencies obtained from the measurements of the scattering parameters of the junction between the launcher and the dielectric rods following Descharnp's method are compared with the theoretical results.

Keywords


Dielectic rod, microwave frequencies, launching efficiency.
