R320 Hollow Rectangular Waveguide

1. Example description

In the following example a standard R320 hollow rectangular waveguide is simulated, see Fig. 1. The cross section of dimensions 7.112 mm and 3.556 mm.

2. TLM model

The waveguiding structure, excitation-type and simulation setup are given in the TLM model files and I3D.r320.

In the first file the structure is excited with a Gaussian signal. The excitation is modelled by a vertically polarized electric field at one port of the waveguide as shown in Fig. 1. Absorbing boundary conditions are used at the boundaries of the simulation domain.

3. Simulation Results
