AbstractSome recent implementations of waveguide filters with elliptical response are presented in this paper. The goal is to describe the main aspects involved in the computer-aided design of elliptic waveguide filters, which are commonly used at microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies by their high selectivity, low insertion loss, and high power-handling capabilities. Three different examples based on crosscoupled cavities and the extracted-pole procedure are used to illustrate the main ideas, with their corresponding experimental results. A comparative table summarizes the main features of the presented filters.
