Strip dual mode filter in which a resonance width of a microwave is adjusted

摘要

A strip dual mode filter includes a strip line ring resonator having a uniform line impedance and an electric length equivalent to a wavelength of a microwave, an input terminal coupled to a point A of the ring resonator, a feed-back circuit connected to points C and D and arranged in a central hollow space of the ring resonator and an output terminal coupled to a point B of the ring resonator. The points A to D are spaced by a quarter-wave length of the microwave in that order. The microwave input to the point A is resonated in the ring resonator in a first mode and is input to the feed-back circuit from the point C. Therefore, a phase of the microwave shifts by a multiple of a half-wave length of the microwave, and the microwave is output to the point D. Thereafter, the microwave is resonated in the ring resonator in a second mode orthogonal to the first mode and is output from the point B to the output terminal. Therefore, the microwave can be resonated and filtered in two orthogonal modes in the strip dual mode filter.
