摘要:
Asymptotic expressions for normalized cut-off frequencies of modes having large meridional order n and small azimuthal order m are obtained for an inhomogeneous waveguide having quadratic index variation. A fractional integral technique is used to construct solutions directly from the differential equation in the form of an integral representation, which is expanded by the steepest-descent procedure.
