Abstract

A compact combline resonator and filter. The annular radius of inductive posts are modulated along the length of the inductive post to establish a desired inductive value for a series inductive capacitive resonator. The filter has a waveguide channel with an input port and an output port. One or more of the inductive posts are located in the waveguide channel, the one or more inductive posts providing filter poles and coupling the input port to the output port, each inductive post being electrically connected at one post end to a wall of the waveguide channel and providing a capacitance gap between an other post end and an opposing wall of the waveguide channel to provide a series inductive capacitive resonator.
