Abstract
The considered in this Chapter method of treatment of waveguide discontinuities is with the theory of diffraction of modes at the obstacles in waveguides and transmission lines, which gives clear understanding of this effect. The modes in waveguides are associated with the equivalent transmission lines, and the one-modal approximation is used widely in microwave techniques. The multimodal representation of the diffracted fields requires more complicated matching of them at the discontinuities, and the integral and stationary functional methods are used to obtain the equivalent circuit models of the obstacles. This idea, related to the founders of the waveguide theory, is additionally required for interpretations of the results obtained by those numerical methods which calculate the field in the whole discontinuity domain without using the modal expansion method.
