Abstract :
A rectangular waveguide taper and two circular waveguide tapers are analyzed using the generalized telegraphist´s equation. Results for the rectangular taper are compared with previously published experimental and numerical data. Unlike the Runge-Kutta technique or the integration technique, the method-of-movements technique did not result in instabilities when the evanescent modes for a simple rectangular taper were included
