Analysis of Linear Tapered Waveguide

This paper presents the analysis of linear tapered waveguide. A mathematical model is shown to accurately predict the performance of linear tapered waveguide. The results are seen to be in good agreement with Chakraborty and Sanyal[2], Matsumaru[3] and Johnson[4]. In a tapered section the dimension of waveguide varies smoothly and for this reason there are possibilities of providing a transition from one impedance level to another. Ghosh[5] and then Mallick and Sanyal[6] analyzed taper line by dividing it into a number of sections of equal length into the direction of propagation. Chakraborty and Sanyal[2] found th
