Abstract
The present invention relates to a waveguide E-plane filter component comprising a first and second main part (2) with a corresponding first and second waveguide section part (3). The main parts (2) are mounted to each other, such that a waveguide arrangement is formed. The waveguide arrangement has a height and a width. The waveguide E-plane filter component further comprises at least one electrically conducting foil (10, 11) that is placed between the main parts (3), said foil comprising a filter part (25) with apertures (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d). Each pair of adjacent apertures is separated by a corresponding foil conductor (13a, 13b, 13c) of which at least one is constituted by a tuning foil conductor (13a) that has a first, second and third part (14, 16, 18) with a corresponding first, second and third width (15, 17, 19).
