β¦ Synopsis
Waveguide bends of complex geometrical shape frequently occur in microwave systems. To make an accurate prediction of the bend's electrical performances it is useful to employ a general numerical algorithm, such as the finite element method (FEM), which is able to cope with complex geometries. However, since in common practice bends are manufactured either on the Eor H-plane, the FEM can be significantly simplified for these cases, thus enhancing its numerical efficiency. In this article, it is illustrated how the FEM can be simplified and it is shown, by means of several examples, how it can be applied to the case of a straight waveguide which is bent and clamped to obtain low return losses.
