Abstract

This paper describes the development of 4-Pole Chebyshev and Quasi-Elliptic Ka Band Dielectric Resonator Filter using Higher Order Mode TE01δ+1. A microwave filter is a two port network used to control the frequency response at a certain point in a microwave system by providing transmission at frequencies within the passband of the filter and attenuation in the stop-band of the filter. The satellite communication industry created demand for low-mass narrow-band low-loss filters with severe specification on amplitude selectivity and phase linearity. The microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum has certain unique properties. This enable microwave signals to propagate over long distances through the atmosphere under all the most severe weather conditions. These have both military and civilian applications, including Radar, Navigation and Wireless Communication. Microwave Filters are vital components in a huge variety of electronic systems, including cellular radio, satellite communications and radar. The design of filters uses network synthesis, with which it is possible to apply systematic procedures to work forward from specification to a final theoretical design.
