Abstract :
A compact mixed modes cylindrical planar dielectric resonator filter in a rectangular enclosure is presented. Space coupling between the resonators excited in different modes and iris coupling between the identical resonators are realized in the filter. All the couplings and resonant frequencies of the DR cavities are computed by a rigorous full wave mode matching method and a cascading procedure using generalized scattering matrices. A 6-pole elliptic function filter is designed and constructed, and the measured filter frequency responses verify the theory
