TY - JOUR AU - Yuan-Long, Mo AB - The variational method is applied to calculate the dispersioncharacteristics of disc-loaded waveguide slow-wave structures. Theparameters describing the waveguide discontinuities in disc-loaded waveguideare calculated by the variational method. Then the dispersioncharacteristics of slow-wave structures are obtained using losslessmicrowave quadrupole theory. Good agreement was observed between results ofthe variational method and those of field matching method andhigh frequency structure simulator. In the case of broad band, results of thevariational method are better than those of field matching method.
