In this thesis, we analyze the electromagnetic wave propagation in waveguidestructuresexhibiting periodical geometry, including glide symmetry. The analysisis performed using a mode matching technique which correlates the different modecoefficients from separate but, connected regions in the structure. This technique isused to obtain the dispersion diagrams for two one-dimensional periodic structures:a glide-symmetric corrugated metasurface and a coaxial line loaded with periodicholes. The mode matching formulation is presented in Cartesian and cylindricalcoordinate system for the former and the later, respectively. The mode matchingresults are compared to simulated results obtained from the Eigenmode Solver inCST Microwave Studio and are found to agree very well. === I detta examensarbete, analyseras elektromagnetisk v°agutbredning i periodiskav°agledarstrukturer som uppvisar glid symmetri. Analysen genomf¨ordes genom enmod matchnings-teknik som korrelerar de olika mod-koefficienterna fr°an separeraderegioner i strukturen med varandra. Denna teknik anv¨ands f¨or att ta framdispersionsrelationen f¨or tv°a endimensionella periodiska strukturer: en glid symmetriskkorrugerad meta-yta och en koaxial ledare belagd med periodiskt urgr¨opdah°aligheter. Mod matchnings-formuleringen presenteras i Kartesiska och cylindriskakoordinatsystem respektive f¨or de ovan n¨amnda fallen. Mod matchnings-resultatenj¨amf¨ors med data-simulerade resultat erh°allna fr°an CST Microwave Studio och de¨overenst¨ammer v¨al med varandra.
