We show that a 3-D microwave crossing waveguide can be solved by a 2-D scalar Helmholtz equation with combining boundary conditions for TE and TM modes. Furthermore the crossing waveguide possesses a symmetry along two diagonal axes passing through the origin. Computation of the EM wave fields is decomposed into four smaller tasks of computing reflection coefficient vector of a parallel plate waveguide terminated with a corner made of two perfectly electric or magnetic conducting walls (PECW/PMCW). In this thesis, we propose a mixed Cartesian and polar coordinate mode-matching method to solve this 2-D corner cube microwave reflection problem. The solution is obtained by applying the continuity condition of both the tangential field and its normal derivative along a given curve inside the overlapped region of the two coordinate systems. We are able to compute up to the third decimal place of the reflection, through and cross transmission coefficients. All results pass the energy conservation test and are verified and compared with those computed by Integral equation method simulation.
