P/N 71983A-1 and 71983A-2 Dielectric Resonator Filters
P/N 71983A-1 and 71983A-2 are eighth order dielectric
resonator filters employing a pair of cross couplings for additional stopband
attenuation and passband flatness characteristics. These filters employ
short, single section evanescent mode filters to couple between two pairs
of resonators. The couplings between the other resonators are inductive
irises, tuned but not resonated. The evanescent filter coupling between
the cross-coupled resonators uses a re-entrant section of coaxial line
to provide the capacitance required to resonate the equivalent shunt inductance
of the below cutoff (evanescent mode) section of waveguide which is what
the irises represent. The filter response is typical of the shaping possible
with this latest RS Microwave patented (U.S. 5,220,300) technique. The
units employ our proprietary resonator mounting method which essentially
"vibration-proofs" the structure.
