The new 3D modelling waveguide package is a design workflow that uses automation to help build 3D waveguide filters. The new function supports rectangular and cylinder waveguides and guides the user through single resonator modelling and analysis, coupling schemes modelling and analysis, and finally a fully customized 3D modeling GUI interface.

Mode Chart

Waveguide modes describe the field pattern characteristic under the particular waveguide structure. It analyzes the transverse hybrid modes, either TE or TM, to determine the widest range of dimensions that meets the user’s desired operating bands. Through the mode chart analysis, users will quickly retrieve the correct waveguide dimension to obtain the widest “clean” frequency window.
