By using the polynomial approximation and superquadric functions in the Rayleigh-Ritz procedure, a unified method has been proposed to analyze conducting hollow waveguides of a large class of cross sections in our previous paper. Some useful and complicated cross-sectional waveguides in the microwave system, namely, eccentric annular, pentagonal, L-shaped, single-ridged, and double-ridged waveguides are analyzed in this paper. Compared with other numerical methods, this method has the advantages of being straightforward, accurate, and computational effective
