Resumen | Dual-Mode filters are used in applications where low mass and volume are required. In this paper, the Computer Aided Design of a new rectangular waveguide filter structure is proposed for achieving the dual-mode operation. It preserves the longitudinal inline topology used in the classical circular waveguide configuration, which can provide quasi-elliptic function responses. However, it has no coupling or tuning screws and it is exclusively made up of sections of aligned rectangular waveguides. This leads to a very efficient full-wave analysis based on the Mode-Matching method. The proposed CAD is illustrated with a four order prototype, whose results are compared with other numerical technique. |
