Abstract :
Pseudo-elliptic waveguide filters which do not include additional couplings between non-adjacent cavities are presented. A 5th order TE111 circular waveguide filter with three finite transmission zeros, a 3rd order E-plane filter with three finite transmission zeros and 5th order H-plane filter with two transmission zeros are presented. The designs, which are carried out using the Coupled-Integral-Equations Technique (CIET), are validated by comparison with the Mode Matching Technique (MMT).
