A bandpass filter arrangement that includes a weakly coupled coaxial resonator to reduce the fluctuation in frequency response of the filter arrangement. A bandpass filter is coupled to the output of a low noise amplifier. The characteristic fluctuation in frequency response in the passband of the bandpass filter is reduced with a coaxial resonator that is disposed proximate the filter arrangement.

Circuit arrangement for reducing passband ripple of a bandpass filter

A combination notch/bandpass filter uses first and second adjacently-located cavities in the conductive housing to respectively provide a tunable, first-stage notch filter and a second-stage bandpass filter. An opening in a wall provides a passage for energy from the first cavity to the second cavity. In the first cavity, a resonator is located adjacent the opening, along with a notch-filter tuning member having one end arranged opposite the resonator and spaced therefrom by a distance to permit the wide end of a coupler to be suspended therebetween. An elongated portion of the coupler carries filtered energy from the first cavity to the second cavity.

Resonating structure providing notch and bandpass filtering

A combined resonator-cavity filter includes a number of cavity structures designed for cooperative arrangement within a housing. The resonator cavities are constructed and arranged to pass energy in an assigned frequency band. The cavities include a first cavity structure having a corresponding cavity volume and constructed to provide a first Q, and a second cavity structure having its corresponding cavity volume and constructed to provide a second Q. The cavity volume corresponding to the second cavity structure is less than the cavity volume corresponding to the first cavity structure. Other aspects are directed to the arrangement and uses of sets of such cavity structures as part of a combined duplexer-receiver having the same housing.
