A dielectric resonator ( ) having three surfaces formed by chamfering three ridged portions sharing an apex of a dielectric block and another three surfaces adjacent respectively thereto, in which each of the chamfered surfaces and the adjacent surfaces thereto offers an angle of 45 degrees and an area ratio of the chamfered surfaces with respect to the adjacent surfaces is 45% is mounted in a cut-off waveguide of a generally rectangular parallelopiped ( ) and feeding probe ( ) and ( ) are provided for composing a dielectric filter.

Dielectric resonator and dielectric filter

In order to provide a dielectric resonator filter which can be reduced in dimension, can be reduced in height, and can be surface-mounted, in a dielectric resonator filter including a rectangular-parallelopiped or polygonal-pole-like metal cavity in which at least one dielectric resonator is arranged between one pair of input/output probes, the input/output probes are attached to corner portions of the rectangular-parallelopiped metal cavity.

Dielectric resonator filter

A magnetic sensor (,) comprises an insulator substrate (,) having first and second surfaces opposite to each other, a soft magnetic element having first and second ends opposite to each other and mounted on the first surface of the insulator substrate, and a conductor mounted on the second surface of the insulator substrate, and an output port coupled to the first and the second ends of the soft magnetic element for deriving an impedance of the soft magnetic element between the first and the second ends. The impedance changes in dependence upon a magnetic field strength applied to the soft magnetic element. In the magnetic sensor (,), the soft magnetic element is a soft magnetic wire (,). The conductor is a ground conductor (,) to be grounded. The magnetic sensor may further comprise a short-circuiting conductor (,) connecting the first end of the soft magnetic wire with the ground conductor while the output port is coupled to the short-circuiting conductor and the second end of the soft magnetic wire. The soft magnetic element may comprise a soft magnetic thin film.

A magnetic sensor (31) includes an insulator substrate (37) having first and second surfaces opposite to each other, a soft magnetic element having first and second ends opposite to each other and mounted on the first surface of the insulator substrate, and a conductor mounted on the second surface of the insulator substrate, and an output port coupled to the first and the second ends of the soft magnetic element for deriving an impedance of the soft magnetic element between the first and the second ends. The impedance changes in dependence upon a magnetic field strength applied to the soft magnetic element. In the magnetic sensor (31), the soft magnetic element is a soft magnetic wire (33). The conductor is a ground conductor (35) to be grounded. The magnetic sensor may further comprise a short-circuiting conductor (39) connecting the first end of the soft magnetic wire with the ground conductor while the output port is coupled to the short-circuiting conductor and the second end of the soft magnetic wire. The soft magnetic element may comprise a soft magnetic thin film.
