摘要

We present a shooting-bouncing approach to ray-tracing as applied to signal propagation modeling in electrically large waveguides, such as underground mine tunnels at wireless communication frequencies. The method is verified for a dominantmode rectangular metallic waveguide excited by a dipole antenna.
