What is Dominant mode?
This page explains dominant mode is all about and provides useful links. Following section explains dominant mode in rectangular waveguide and circular waveguide.
Dominant mode in Rectangular waveguide
Cutoff wavelength equation for rectangular waveguide is define below.
Here, m= number of half-wave along broad side dimension,
N= number of half-wave along the shorter side.
For dominant mode TE10, m=1, n=0 and hence, λc= 2(broad dimension) =2a
Dominant mode in Circular waveguide
Cutoff Frequency equation for circular waveguide fc is defined below , fc= (1.8412 * c /2*pi*a) Where, c is the speed of light within waveguide and a is the radius of the circular cross section. Fc= For dominant mode TE11, λc= 1.71(diameter)=1.71d
