Abstract :
In this paper a new configuration of Comb filter is proposed, which employs a circular cylindrical enclosure instead of the typical rectangular configuration. An original design procedure has been developed for this filter structure, which takes into account the non uniform nature of the array of coupled transmission lines resonators. The design approach has been verified both with numerical simulations and by means of an experimental test filter.
