Abstract

A combline filter has a ceramic resonator disposed inside at least one cavity wall. Because the resonator is implemented as a hollow rod, a tuning element may be inserted into an opening on the top of the rod to tune its frequency. A mounting element, inserted into an opening on the bottom of the rod secures its position inside a cavity resonator. Instead of soldering the resonator to the filter's walls, the resonator is supported above a bottom or side wall of the cavity resonator.
