A rectangular hollow metal waveguide has dimensions a = 2.29 cm and b = 1.02 cm. Microwave power at 10 GHz is transmitted through the waveguide in the $$T{E_{10}}$$ mode.
(a) Calculate the cut-off wavelength and the guide wavelength for this mode.
(b) What are the other (TE or TM) modes that can propagate through the waveguide?
(c) If a = b = 2.29 cm, what are the modes which can propagate through the waveguide?

A 100 m section of an air-filled rectangular wave-guide operating in the $$T{E_{10}}$$ mode has a cross-sectional dimension of 1.071 cm $$ \times $$ 0.5 cm. Two pulses carriers of 21 GHz and 28 GHz are simultaneously launched at one end of the wave-guide section. What is the time delay difference between the two pulses at the other end of the waveguide?
