An efficient method for study of general bi-anisotropic waveguides

In this paper, coupled-mode equations for general bi-anisotropic waveguides with perfect electrically conducting (PEG) walls are studied and a set of rigorous expressions is obtained. The features of these equations are discussed and applications to circular/rectangular Faraday chiral and chiral waveguides are demonstrated. Comparisons between Faraday chiral, chiral, and ferrite-filled waveguides are also given. >
