Abstract :
A transmission resonator implemented in fin-line technique is rigorously analysed by applying the method of equivalent rectangular waveguides. Based on these results, bandpass filters with up to 5 resonators are designed taking the higher-order mode coupling between the resonators into account. It is shown that this effect is of considerable importance in the design of fin-line bandpass filters.
