Abstract
A dielectric resonator oscillator having a resonant structure connected to an amplifier the output of which is fed back to the input of the resonant structure. The resonant structure includes a metal cavity in which a dielectric disk is centrally mounted by a low-loss dielectric post. A pair of microstrip transmission lines extend into the cavity to provide energy outputs and inputs. Dielectric and conductive tuning screws are mounted on the cavity walls. Electrical tuning is provided via a varactor diode whose bias is adjustable. The diode may be connected in series or parallel with the microstrip transmission line.
