We propose a design and optimization method for a dielectric-loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide using a genetic algorithm. This structure consists of a polymer ridge on top of two layers of substrate and gold film. The thickness, width and refractive index of the ridge are designed to optimize the figures of merit including mode confinement and propagation length. The modal analysis combined with the effective index method shows that the designed waveguide exhibits a fundamental propagation mode with high mode confinement while ensuring that the propagation loss remains relatively low.

Bandstop characteristics of dielectric waveguide gratings are investigated using the modal approach. First, single step discontinuity of the dielectric waveguide is analyzed in terms of the mode matching method. Then by cascading those discontinuities characteristics of dielectric waveguide gratings are derived. Experimental results at X-band show good agreement with theoretical ones.

In this paper, a problem that occurred in the telegraphist equation established by mode conversion method is solved as analysis tapered transmission line is applied to a waveguide taper. After comparing and analyzing the taper function with variant properties, we select on of taper functions not only that is easily designed but also that have good properties. And then we propose the applicant method to design the waveguide taper and deal with the design of mode transducer between rectangular waveguide and circular waveguide. The measured results of scattering coefficients for the mode transducer fabricated with designed data are agreed well with the theoretical results and the validity of the proposed design and analysis method has been confirmed.

We developed an optimal design interface based on VBA(Visual Basic Application) that takes advantage of API(Application Program Interface) function of commonly used EM analysis software. The developed interface is adopted for an optimal design of a septum in a waveguide tee junction using PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm. The objective function of the optimal design is defined by $S_{11}$-parameter of the waveguide tee junction Design variables are established as position of the septum, that are changed to satisfy the design goal Using the developed design interface and PSO algorithm, the objective function converged to the smallest value, showing the validity of the proposed method. The design interface was developed using Microsoft Excel software, enabling easy control of design parameters for user. Also, various analysis parameters can be set in the Excel interface, including waveguide input mode and frequency. After completion of the design, field solutions at user-specified positrons can be extracted to the output files in complex number form.

In this paper, the analysis and design of a spirally slotted array antenna with high efficiency are presented. Electric fields in the slots are calculated by electromagnetic fields in the upper waveguide and radiation field equations are derived. Slots are arrayed spirally on the upper circular plate of twofold radial waveguide. In order to suppress grating lobes from the array, a slow wave structure is inserted in the upper waveguide. This antenna is characterized by a good circular polarization, high efficiency of 75 percent and grating lobes below -34dB.

This paper shows the formulation of fast moving least square reproducing kernel method (FMLSRKM) which is a kind of meshfree methods. FMLSRKM has some advantages compared to conventional numerical techniques such as finite element method. For simple analysis on a rectangular waveguide, point collocation scheme is introduced and applied.

BPM simulation was used in order to fabricate the LiNbO$_3$optical waveguide with optical source of He-Ne laser(λ=0.6328[$\mu$m]). we observed electric field E$_{x}$, E$_{y}$ in the x,y-direction are simulated at the LiNbO$_3$substrate (X1 55[$\mu$m]$\times$Z1 5000[$\mu$m]), where the depth, width and buffer layer of waveguide are 0.2[$\mu$m],4[$\mu$m] and 0.02[$\mu$m] respectively. By applying these parameters of single waveguide to simulate a X-switch, we have chosen index change of 0.002, width of 3[$\mu$m] and angle of 0.4$^{\circ}$~0.6$^{\circ}$of optical waveguide and under these conditions, optical beam propagates cross-side at 0.4$^{\circ}$. When applied switching voltage of 25[V], optical beam of X-switch turns cross-side to bar-side at intersection angle 0.4$^{\circ}$, index change of 0.002, waveguide width of 3[$\mu$m], electrode gap 2[$\mu$m]. By the above results, we can obtain design conditions of theoretical analysis of an X-switch optical waveguide.e.e.

In this paper, we present the numerical analysis method for analyzing scattering characteristics of a rectangular waveguide with the conducting half cylinder using the mode matching method and compute scattering characteristics of a waveguide according to the rotation and changing radius of the half cylinder. Also, in conjunction with the generalized scattering method, the proposed method can be easily applied to a rectangular waveguide with cascade structure of conducting half cylinders. From the simulated result of a two pole filter, resonance frequency could be controlled by the rotation of half cylinders. The simulated result shows good agreement with the HFSS's result. The proposed structure and analysis method are easily applied to the design of waveguide components with conducting half cylinders.
