Abstract :
Designs for millimeter-wave magnetically tunable E-plan integrated circuit filters are described. The filters combine the advantages of printed circuit technology with the high-power capability of ferrite-loaded waveguides. Computer-optimized design data based on the rigorous modal S-matrix method are given for Ka-band tunable metallic and finline type filters. The theory is verified by measured results in Ku-band.<>
