Abstract

The Maxwell system is considered in a waveguide with perfectly conducting boundary having several cylindrical outlets to infinity. A minimizer of a quadratic functional serves as an approximation to a row of the scattering matrix. To construct such a functional, we solve an auxiliary boundary value problem in the bounded domain obtained by cutting off, at a distance R, the waveguide outlets to infinity. As R tends to infinity, the minimizer a(R, k) tends at exponential rate to the corresponding row of the scattering matrix.
