Power conversion coefficients and the launch phase of propagating modes excited by a symmetric step-discontinuity in circular waveguide are accurately predicted by a modal analysis of the discontinuity which includes only a few evanescent modes. The relative power in transmitted and reflected propagating modes is presented as a function of normalized frequency for two step-discontinuity ratios to indicate typical solution results.
