초록

This paper investigates the impact of tube curvature on electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation in the Hyperloop communication environment. The Hyperloop tube can be modeled as a circular waveguide, whose geometric curvature may affect intra-tube signal propagation. To unveil the true impact of tube curvature, we have conducted EM simulations to analyze the propagation characteristics of the TE11 mode under two configurations: a perfectly straight tube, and a curved tube with bend radius R = 500m and bending angle θ = 90°. The obtained results show that TE11 exhibits stable propagation in the straight tube, whereas fluctuating received signal power in the curved counterpart. Such findings reveal how much tube curvature affects EM wave propagation and provide practical insights and guidelines for the tube design and intra-tube communication systems. © 2025 IEEE.
