Abstract:
This work solves the problem of propagation of a monochromatic electromagnetic wave in a radially symmetric waveguide surrounded by a conducting shell. A Crank-Nicholson difference scheme is developed to solve the problem. The error analysis is performed for the following two special cases providing for an analytical solution: a) the case when the effect of the environment self-action is neglected and the refractive index is constant; b) the case when the dependence of the refractive index in the radial section is parabolic.

Keywords:
electromagnetic radiation, radially symmetrical waveguide, monochromatic wave, Crank-Nicholson difference, refractive index.
