In this paper, a high-precision eigenmode-computation analysis of arbitrary azimuthal mode numbers in periodic disc-loaded structure based on variational method will be discussed. It allows for rounding the edge of a disk hole without any approximation in shape treatment and calculates the modes exactly synchronous to the beam. It converges much faster than the mesh-based computer code. Good agreement was observed between the results of variational method and those of other methods.
