Theory of waveguides and transmission lines / Edward F. Kuester. - 1 online resource : illustrations

Includes bibliographical references.

This book covers the principles of operation of electromagnetic waveguides and transmission lines. The approach is divided between mathematical descriptions of basic behaviors and treatment of specific types of waveguide structures. Classical (distributed-network) transmission lines, their basic properties, their connection to lumped-element networks, and the distortion of pulses are discussed followed by a full field analysis of waveguide modes. Modes of specific kinds of waveguides - traditional hollow metallic waveguides, dielectric (including optical) waveguides, etc. are discussed. Problems of excitation and scattering of waveguide modes are addressed, followed by discussion of real systems and performance.


Edward F. Kuester is a Professor Emeritus at the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering at the University of Colorado at Boulder. In 1979, he was a Summer Faculty Fellow at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA. From 1981 to 1982, he was a Visiting Professor at the Technische Hogeschool, Delft, The Netherlands. In 1992 and 1993, he was an Invited Professor at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland. He has held the position of Visiting Scientist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Boulder, CO in 2002, 2004, and 2006. His research interests include the modeling of electromagnetic phenomena of guiding and radiating structures, metamaterials, applied mathematics and applied physics.
