Figure 2: Fields pattern of the fundamental mode, TE10 . The green lines represent the E-field, the purple
lines the H-field and orange lines the J-field.
The electromagnetic analysis of a rectangular waveguide is well known,
and can be easily found in the literature, like [1]. Here we list only final
results that can be used to verify the simulation results.

In Table 2 we compare the results shown in Fig. 4 and compare with the
analytical results given by the Eq. 1 – 3.
