    Abstract: The invention relates to a single mode multi-cavity microwave filter that includes a housing formed with a plurality of walls which define at least two rows of side-by-side dielectric loaded cavities, wherein sequential cavities are coupled to one another via slots or probes in the walls therebetween and at least one pair of non-sequential adjacent cavities are coupled via a slot or probe. The coupling via the slots is defined mathematically as positive coupling. The probe is selectively configurable to provide positive or negative coupling relative to the sign of the slot coupling. Further, at least one non-adjacent, non-sequential pair of cavities is coupled via a second probe that may be configured to provide either positive or negative coupling relative to the sign of the slot coupling. The filter housing supports a plurality of adjustable fins which extend into the slots, one fin to each slot, to selectively adjust the size of the slot.

    Abstract: An improved design for microwave bandpass cavity filters wherein dielectric resonator elements are mounted in dielectric blocks (there can be more than one resonator element per dielectric block). The dielectric blocks are in turn fitted within the filter housing, and the open ends are covered by shorting plates which are maintained in contact with each resonator surface. The shorting plates may be coated with a superconductive material. The structure results in significant size reduction over prior art filters. In addition, the new design is of higher structural integrity and helps to maintain a consistent output over a wide range of temperatures. By carefully choosing the dielectric materials to insure uniform thermal expansion of the component parts, the filter output is stable over a wide range of temperatures. This allows the filters to be tuned while at cryogenic temperatures, then returned to room temperature for storage or shipping, and finally return to cryogenic temperatures for operating purposes. The filters can be constructed with various configurations and can be operated in single mode, dual-mode, triple-mode, etc.
