Mode-matching analysis of a coaxially fed annular slot surrounded by corrugations is conducted in this study. An electromagnetic boundary value problem of a coaxially fed annular slot surrounded with corrugations is rigorously solved based on the Hankel transform, eigenfunction expansion, and mode-matching method. The radiated field is represented in a fast-convergent series that is amenable to numerical analysis. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the radiation behaviors in terms of the geometries of the corrugations and compared with measurement data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Enhanced transmission through a circular aperture surrounded by concentric surface corrugations in a conducting plane is investigated. A boundary-value problem of electromagnetic wave scattering from a circular aperture surrounded by concentric surface corrugations is rigorously solved based on the Hankel transform, eigenfunction expansion, and mode-matching method. The transmission coefficient is represented in a fast-convergent series that is amenable to numerical analysis. Computation is performed to illustrate the transmission behaviors in terms of the geometries of the concentric corrugations. The effects of the higher-order modes on the transmission coefficients are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Directional emission from a slit surrounded by rectangular grooves on the exit surface in a conducting plane is investigated. An electromagnetic boundary-value problem dealing with a slit surrounded by rectangular grooves on the exit surface in a conducting plane is rigourously solved based on the Fourier transform, eigenfunction expansion, and mode-matching method. The radiation pattern from the slit is represented in a series and computed to illustrate the radiation behaviors in terms of the groove geometry. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
