	abstract = {The full-wave design of broadband ortho-mode transducers based on the Boifot junction has two main aspects: an efficient analysis method and a design process divided into tasks with relatively low computational effort. In the analysis part, a rigorous mode-matching technique has been developed to obtain the generalized admittance matrix of the Boifot junction. The other elements of the device are also analyzed by mode-matching. With respect to the design, the proposed procedure starts with the optimization of the individual building blocks of the device. Their interaction is also taken into account in a systematic process. The analysis and design methods have been validated with other numerical methods and an experimental prototype},

	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.},
