The need of resolving oscillating solutions and the so-called pollution effect make their numerical discretization through standard FEM extremely expensive for highfrequencies. In Trefftz methods, the trial and the test functions are solution of the PDE inside each element, thus they are oscillating functionsand we can expect to be able to approximate the solution with smaller discrete spaces. The basis functions are often chosen as vector plane waves.We formulate a class of Trefftz-discontinuous Galerkin (TDG) methods that includes the well-known Ultra Weak Variational Formulation(UWVF), we study the convergence of their spectral version, and we show well-posedness and quasi-optimality in a mesh skeleton norm. A novel vector Rellich-type identity allows to prove new (wavenumber-independent) stability estimates for the considered boundary value problem in star-shaped polyhedral domains; we use them in a duality argument to prove error bounds in a mesh-independent norm.The abstract convergence analysis is carried out for any Trefftz trial space. In the case of vector plane or spherical waves, concrete errorbounds are obtained by proving the corresponding best approximation estimates.\bibliographystyle{plain}\begin{thebibliography}{10}\bibitem{MaxwellPDE}{\sc R.
