Application of exterior calculus to waveguides

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Exterior calculus is a powerful tool to search for solutions to the electromagnetic field equations, whose strength can be better appreciated when applied to work out non-trivial configurations. Here we show how to exploit this machinery to obtain the electromagnetic TM and TE modes in hollow cylindrical waveguides. The proper use of exterior calculus and Lorentz boosts will straightforwardly lead to such solutions and the respective power transmitted along the waveguide.
