Abstract: This paper proposes a new, fast, and efficient method for determining the electromagnetic field distribution in two-port E-plane dielectric-loaded uniform rectangular waveguides. The analysis region is divided into individual blocks in the absence and presence of dielectric obstacles. The non-zero electric and magnetic field components are constructed throughout the system via the proposed method by utilizing the generalized scattering matrix method between blocks for unimodal or multimodal excitation. The resulting field distributions are compared to those obtained from commercial software, with very close agreement achieved, but with a significantly reduced computational time for the proposed method. The method is applicable in a straightforward manner and has been tested on both a filter device with relatively complex geometry and a disjoint system with a modal coupling challenge between its elements. The field components' accuracy is also tested by calculating the Poynting vector along the system. Additionally, this approach provides the global scattering parameters at the physical ports as a co-product. The proposed method has the potential to be applied to various two-port networks by using the proposed method according to the considered problem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
