Abstract
A general method has been developed to evaluate the propagation constant in oversized circular hollow-core waveguides characterized by a surface impedance and admittance due to a uniform bend. Completely different formulas are obtained for the attenuation constants of the modes in metallic or dielectric hollow waveguides from those obtained by Marcatili and Schmeltzer. Electric-field lines are also presented for several lower order modes in bent waveguides.Keywords
