Abstract :
A systematical analysis of nonuniform dielectric waveguides by the method of staircase approximation is presented. The transition problem of curved dielectric waveguides is investigated in terms of scattering of surface waves by the nonuniform waveguide as a whole. Extensive numerical data are obtained to develop guidelines for the design of transition dielectric waveguides for millimetre-wave application.
