SCATTMAT: a mode matching and generalized scattering matrix code for personal computers in a windows environment

In this paper, a computer aided design tool is presented to simulate symmetrical radially deformed circular waveguide microwave components. This tool works with the well-known “Mode Matching and Scattering Matrix” techniques, and it has been developed in C++ language in a Windows environment, to obtain the most friendly interface between the user and the code. The most important feature of the presented code is that it includes the possibility to display the internal mode power evolution along the component. The code has been successfully validated with numerical and experimental results from different authors.
