Abstract
In one embodiment, a filter includes two sets of dielectric resonators mounted in corresponding sets of metallic resonant cavities. Adjoining resonant cavities are separated by a wall that have an opening. Each dielectric resonator of the first and second sets has a post and a single connected pedestal and is mounted within its corresponding cavity so that the post contacts a first cavity wall and the pedestal is separated from the opposing wall by an air gap. Each dielectric resonator of the first set is oriented in a first direction, with its pedestal on the bottom. Each dielectric resonator of the second set is oriented in a second direction, opposite to the first, with its pedestal on the top. The filter's (i) source port couples with a resonator of the first set and (ii) load port couples with a resonator of the second set.
