Abstract
The present invention is directed to improved coupling mechanisms for TE.sub.011 and TE.sub.01.delta. mode resonators. In one embodiment, the coupling mechanism provides an adjustable connection for transferring electromagnetic energy from a first resonator to a second resonator. Once the resonators are coupled, the coupling mechanism is adapted to allow adjustment of the magnitude and/or the phase of the electromagnetic energy while preserving the electromagnetic connection between the resonators. In another embodiment, the coupling mechanism provides a connection of the resonators using a waveguide. By varying the connection of the resonators with respect to the waveguide, positive relative coupling and/or negative relative coupling of the electromagnetic energy transferred between the waveguide and the resonators is provided.
