Representation of modes
◼ The general symbol of representation will
be TEmn or TMmn where the subscript (m)
indicates the number of half wave variations
of the electric field or magnetic field along
the a (broad) dimension of the waveguide
i.e., z- direction.

Representation of modes
◼ The second subscript (n) indicates the
number of half wave variations of the
electric field or magnetic field along the
b (narrow) dimension of the waveguide i.e.,
y- direction.

Dominant modes
◼ TE10 and TM11 are the dominant modes.
◼ It is the mode for the lowest frequency that
can be propagated in a waveguide.
◼ The longest operating wavelength.
