The shape dictates the frequencies that can propagate.

A circular waveguide will have one set of frequencies that can propagate, depending on its diameter and, if different materials are used, the makeup of those materials.

A rectangular waveguide will have two sets of frequencies that can propagate (as I remember), each set depending on the dimensions of the rectangle.

What is ratio of area of circular waveguide to rectangular waveguide having same dominant mode cutoff frequency?

The ratio of the area of a circular waveguide to that of a rectangular waveguide with the same dominant mode cutoff frequency can be derived from the relationship between their dimensions and the cutoff frequency. For the dominant mode (TE11 for circular and TE10 for rectangular), the cutoff frequency depends on the waveguide's geometry. Generally, the area of the circular waveguide is greater than that of the rectangular waveguide when both are designed to support the same cutoff frequency. Specifically, the area ratio can be expressed as ( A_{\text{circle}} / A_{\text{rectangle}} = \frac{\pi a^2}{ab} ) where ( a ) is the radius of the circular waveguide and ( b ) is the width of the rectangular waveguide, leading to a ratio dependent on their respective dimensions.

What is difference between Rectangular Waveguide and Circular Waveguide?

circular is easy to manufacture than rectangular As the name indicates the circular is circular in shape and rectangular is rectangular in shape its uses same modes that is Te and Tm I know this much only hope this helped u little bit atleast A: In principle waveguides act as the equivalent of wires for high frequency circuits. For such applications, it is desired to operate waveguides with only one mode propagating inside of the waveguide. With rectangular waveguides, it is possible to design the waveguide such that the frequency band over which only one mode propagates is as high as 2:1 (i.e. the ratio of the upper band edge to lower band edge is 2). With circular waveguides, the highest possible band width allowing only a single mode to propagate is only 1.3601:1. I found it on Wikileaks.

Difference between cone and right circular cone?

In a right circular cone the apex is directly above the centre of the base.


What Difference between cone and right circular cone?

A right circular cone is perfectly balanced on its circular base. Imagine a cone that has a circular base, but leans to one side - this is a non right circular cone.


Diff between linear and circular convolution?

there is a big difference between circular and linear convolution , in linear convolution we convolved one signal with another signal where as in circular convolution the same convolution is done but in circular patteren ,depending upon the samples of the signal
