In this article the advanced modeling and simulation of narrow band waveguide diplexer for radio‐relay links at 13 GHz is presented. Three different electromagnetic simulation packages were used for design of diplexer with 0.76% of fractional bandwidth and 2% of channel spacing. Simulation tools are compared concerning their accuracy in the prediction of central frequency, bandwidth, insertion and return losses and out of band attenuation. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
