Abstract
A multi-mode cavity filter comprises a dielectric body having at least first and second orthogonal resonant modes; a first coupling element formed on a first face of the dielectric body for coupling energy to at least a first resonant mode; and a second coupling element formed on the first face of the dielectric body for coupling energy from the at least a first resonant mode. The dielectric body is capable of supporting a first coupling path between the first coupling element and the second coupling element via the at least a first resonant mode and a second coupling path between the first coupling element and the second coupling element, the second coupling path being such that at least partial cancellation of at least some coupled energy takes place so as to form a zero in a response of the filter.
