   In addition to the TEM mode solution, other modes exist in the parallel-plate waveguide. Assume that the waves propagating in the parallel-plate waveguide have a phase term, the  operator can be decomposed into components in the   direction and perpendicular to the   direction, namely,  where . Similarly, the fields can also be decomposed into two components as  and   .
