  1. (A) The variables choosen for the equivalent circuit of a 2 port network in the microwave range of frequencies are travelling waves rather than total voltage and total currents.
    (R) In microwave range equipment is not readily available to measure total voltage and total currents at the ports of the networks. Short and open circuits are difficult to achieve over a broad-band of frequencies and active devices frequently will not have stability for a short or open circuit.

  1. (A) In some applications, the TM01 mode in circular waveguide is preferred to the TE01 mode or TE11 mode.
    (R) TM01 mode not only overcomes the problem of rotation of polarisation in circular waveguide but also requires a smaller diameter.
