	abstract = {In this article, a systematic design procedure for the design of self-equalised elliptic filters in H-plane configuration is presented. Such a configuration in tends to be an alternative to the classical dual-mode circular waveguide configuration in Ka band, with the aim in mind of reducing cost and computation time. In order to decrease the insertion loss the TE105 will be used. A sixth order filter with two transmission zeros at finite real frequencies and two zeros for equalisation has been designed, manufactured and measured. The results make clear the validity of the proposed configuration},

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 = {In this article, a new procedure for the design and construction of a contiguous band manifold triplexer in H-plane configuration is presented. Such a configuration eliminates the slots between the T-junctions and the filters allowing high power handling as well as reducing dramatically the risk of multipactor. In addition, the device has been manufactured using a three layer sandwich configuration. In this way, the classical milling machine has been replaced by a wire-electric-milling one. The rounded corners are removed and consequently the tuning process is practically eliminated. In order to validate the above performance, a Ku-band triplexer has been designed, manufactured and measured.},

	abstract = {In this paper, an extension to the extracted pole technique for synthesizing N-order filters with N-transmission zeros at real frequencies is presented. In addition, a new bandpass rectangular waveguide H-plane low-cost configuration filter for high-power low-loss application (patent pending) that implements a filtering function with finite real frequency transmission zeros is proposed. This structure operates as a resonant cavity in transmission at central frequency of the bandpass and simultaneously introduces a controlled transmission zero out of the bandpass. Since every double-controlled electrical behavior cavity introduces a transmission zero, it is possible to introduce as many transmission zeros as the order of the filtering function. In order to validate the synthesis procedure and the new structure, different filters have been designed: a second-order filter with two transmission zeros, a third-order filter with one transmission zero, a fourth-order filter with two transmission zeros, and finally, an eighth-order filter with two transmission zeros. The last two have been manufactured, showing an excellent agreement between the measurement and theoretical simulation.},
