Abstract

See full text

A radio frequency (RF) dielectric resonator filter includes at least a first cavity and a second cavity, each cavity being loaded with a dielectric resonator. The first cavity is separated from the second cavity by a common wall, the common wall including a first and second aperture that couple an electromagnetic field between the first cavity and the second cavity. A first externally adjustable tuning screw extends from the second aperture, a portion of the tuning screw being external to the filter. The first aperture is an iris disposed in a central portion of the wall and the second aperture is disposed proximate to a perimeter of the wall. The second aperture has an effective area that is adjustable by the first externally adjustable tuning screw.
