Fano resonance scattering in waveguide with an impedance boundary condition

Abstract

Sound propagation in a waveguide lined with one section of locally reactive material is studied by resonance scattering approach. The objective is to understand the effects of mode coupling in the lined section on the transmission. It is shown that a transmission zero is present in the vicinity of a resonance peak when a numerically real resonance frequency of the open lined section (opened to infinities through the rigid parts of the waveguide) is crossed. The transmission zero and immediate resonance peak form a Fano resonance, it has been explained as an interaction between a resonance and the non-resonant background. The real resonance frequency and its corresponding trapped mode are formed by the interferences (couplings) between two neighbor modes with complex resonance frequencies. It is also linked to the avoided crossing of eigenvalues and the exceptional point. The scattering matrix is expressed in terms of a matrix ${\mathsf{H}}_{\mathsf{eff}}$ which describes approximately the complex resonances in the open lined section. With the aid of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of matrix ${\mathsf{H}}_{\mathsf{eff}}$, the traditional acoustic resonance scattering formula can be extended to describe the coupling effects between the open lined section and the rigid parts of the waveguide.
