Abstract

An accurate design technique of dual-mode microwave dielectric or air-filled rectangular waveguide filters is described. Dual-mode coupling is realized by a section of rectangular waveguide with square-corner-cut. The unequal couplings between dual-mode pairs of the cavities is provided by a section of evanescent mode waveguide. Rigorous analyses are applied to characterize the microwave junctions and to obtain the design parameters for the filter. The design procedure used to determine the dimensions of the waveguide junctions with a minimum of computational effort is described. The design is demonstrated by four-pole and six-pole dual-mode rectangular waveguide elliptic function filters. Excellent agreement between computer simulation and experimental results with absolutely no tuning justifies the design.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
