abstract = {This paper presents a novel technique for analyzing the mode content
excited by antennas placed in multimode waveguides. The technique
is based on measuring the frequency response between the two antennas
coupled into a waveguide and using that information to extract the
mode content generated by the transmitting antenna. The technique
is applicable to cases in which the mode amplitudes are approximately
constant over the frequency range of interest. This method is valuable
for determining the mode mix generated by arbitrary transmitting
antennas in a multimode waveguide propagation environment. An example
of such an environment is heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning
(HVAC) ducts used for indoor communications, where an important antenna
characteristic is the mode sensitivity (analogous to the antenna
directive gain in free space). We validate our technique with the
example of a monopole probe antenna coupled into a multimode cylindrical
HVAC duct.},
