Existing research is only qualitative because of the complexity of theoretical calculations. For designing a high performance cell, a mathematic model of high-order modes transmission is built according to the geometrical construction of co-conical. The associated Legendre control functions of high-order modes are calculated by using recursion methodology and the numerical calculation roots are presented with different half angles of inner and outer conductor. Relationship between roots and high-order modes transmission is analyzed, when the half angles of inner conductor and outer conductor are θ1=1.5136° and θ2=8° respectively, the co-conical cell has better performance for fewer transmitting high-order modes. The propagation process of the first three transmitting modes wave is simulated in CST-MWS software from the same structured co-conical. The simulation plots show that transmission of high-order modes appears with electromagnetic wave reflection, then different high-order mode transmission has different cut-off region and each cut-off region is determined by its cut-off wavelength.
