Abstract
The cross-section method is extended to the case of waveguides containing sharp metal edges. Such structures comprise strip lines, microstrip lines, and slot transmission lines. Relationships for eigenmode coupling coefficients in a section with parameters varying in the longitudinal direction are derived by passing to the limit: from a waveguide with smooth contour of the cross section to a waveguide with sharp edges. These relationships are applied to a single-mode strip line with conductor having variable width. It is shown that the obtained results agree with the results of the theory of microwave transmission lines.
