Computer-Aided Design of a Waveguide Multiplexer

A procedure based on an analysis algorithm and interactive program is described for the design of waveguide multiplexer. Simple rules, which enable the designer to quickly find a near-optimum design in a small number of iteration steps, are given. An example of a 6-channel communications multiplexer, which utilizes narrow-bandpass elliptic function waveguide filters, is also included.
