The sharpness-induced mode stopping and spectrum rarefication in waveguides with periodically corrugated walls

V. O. Goryashko, Yu. V. Tarasov, L. D. Shostenko

Starting from the rigorous excitation equation, the propagation of waves through a 2D waveguide with the periodically corrugated finite-length insert is examined in detail. The cor…
