	abstract = {CAD of rectangular waveguide filters with elliptic responses is described. The configuration uses capacitive and inductive irises in order to achieve the different coupling signs required to synthesize finite transmission zeros in the rejection bands. The input and output ports are realized by a coaxial probe that directly excites the input/output cavities. The analysis is done by the efficient mode-matching method, in order to allow a final full-wave optimization taking into account all the higher order mode interactions. The CAD results are verified with the HFSS and a filter was manufactured for testing.},

	abstract = {The paper presents the analysis of the discontinuity between a coaxial and a generalized stripline waveguide and its application to the characterization of a probe inside a rectangular waveguide. The probe is modeled by a stripline whose inner conductor is stepped. For thin probes, just a reduced number of sections is needed and its characterization can be obtained very efficiently. The mode-matching technique is employed for analyzing the basic discontinuity, and the inner cross products between the modes are computed by means of the Bessel-Fourier series, reducing the computation time with respect to a pure numerical integration. The simulation results are compared with those obtained by other numerical techniques.},
