  • a travelling-wave tube is used as the power amplifier on the transmission side.
  • a travelling-wave tube has, however, inherent nonlinearity, due to which higher harmonics are inevitably generated at the amplification stage.
  • Such harmonic components are not only unnecessary to microwave communication but also undesirable for the system as a whole because it requires excessive power for transmission. Such undesirable components should therefore be removed.
  • a band pass filter is usually coupled to the output end of the TWT arnplifier for this purpose.
  • a conventional bandpass filter of the waveguide type is not capable of rejecting the higher harmonic components. It allows the undesirable higher n harmonics to pass therethrough together with the fundamental components.
  • a lowpass filter must be employed in addition to the bandpass filter.
  • a novel microwave bandpass filter which has sufficiently high rejection characteristic against second harmonic component, which is dominant among the higher harmonic components.
  • This invention is based on the fact that the higher harmonic components can be substantially suppressed by rejecting the second higher harmonic component, because higher-thansecond higher harmonics are very weak and can be neglected. Since the second higher harmonics are in the region where higher transmission modes of microwaves are concentrated, the second higher harmonics can be suppressed by eliminating the higher mode components.

  • a plurality of resonators 12 and 13 are disposed in series at a spacing of Ag/4.
  • Each of the resonators 12 and 13 has tuning screw 14 for attaining the tuned state at each of the resonators l2 and 13.
  • This bandpass filter has the attenuation vs. frequency characteristic as seen from the curve in FIG. 2 that a bandpass filter consisting of a waveguide having a width a of the wide plane has its selectivity only in the range where the frequency is lower than the cutoff frequency fc for the TE, mode.
  • the cutoff frequency fc is approximately equal to c/a; where 0 denotes the velocity of light.
  • the bandpass filter has its selectivity only in the range where the frequency f is lower than fc In the region above f rnthe characteristics become indefinite, because the existence of possible higher modes disturbs the function of the filter.
  • the second harmonic 2f twice as high as the frequency f of the passband of the bandpass filter is higher than fc and included in the region where disturbance is caused.

Let it be as sumed here that the long line of the cross-sectional rectangle of the rectangular waveguide lies in X-axis, the shorter line in Y-axis, and the longitudinal axis in Z-axis.

  • the wavelength of the mode under consideration is the guide wavelength.
  • FIG. 3(b) shows a field intensity distribution of higher mode TE having a double sinusoidal hump in X-Y plane, and a single hump in Y-Z plane (extending from the inductive rod 21 to 21').
  • FIG. 3(c) shows a similar distribution of higher mode TE having a single sinusoidal hump in the X-Y plane, and a double hump in the Y-Z plane (extending from the inductive post 21 to 21').

  • FIG. 4 shows characteristic curves, which are the results of calculation from Equation (5).
  • Curve 31 shows the relationship between the resonant frequency f for the fundamental mode TE and the cavity length l normalized by the cutofi' frequency and cutoff wavelength for the TE mode itself.
  • Curve 32 shows the relationship between the resonant frequency f of a higher mode T13 and the cavity length I normalized by the cutoff frequency j and cutoff wavelength Ac of the fundamental mode TE Similarly, curves 33 through 37 show relationships between the resonant frequency f for higher modes TE TE TE TE, and TE respectively, and the cavity length normalized by the cutofi frequency f, and cutoff wavelength M for the fundamental wave TE mode.
  • a rectangular-waveguide-type bandpass filter is designed to operate with f/f value of the desirable (or fundamental) frequency of the passband in the range between 1.4 and 1.8.
  • f/f for the fundamental frequency value is between 1.4 and 1.63.
  • f/f for the fundamental frequency is in the range between 1.58 and 1.71. It is therefore apparent that second harmonic must be rejected in the f/f value range between 2.8 and 3.3 or between 3.1 and 3.6. To attain this objective, the resonance curves for the higher modes should never fall within this range. In FIG. 4, the hatched area satisfies this condition.
  • the area where l/M value lies in the range between 0.2 and 0.3 is favorable.
  • the reason for this is as follows: While the l/Ac values lie in the region between 0.3 and 0.6, curves 33, 35, and 36 respectively for TE TE and TE, modes are existent, this is not favorable to elimination of higher modes.
  • the resonant frequency for the fundamental mode TE corresponding to the fundamental frequency becomes lower than the desirable resonant frequency f, and very difficult to raise.
  • the resonant frequency for the fundamental frequency is unnecessarily high, and also difficult to lower. Therefore, by way of selecting the cavity length l to fall within this area, the second harmonic component can be rejected.
  • the higher mode TE it is sufficient for the higher mode TE to reduce its resonant frequency or to keep it unchanged.
  • the resonant frequency of T15 mode can be reduced by inserting a capacitive rod at a position except for on the line -15.
  • the cutoff frequency f normalized by the cutoff frequency f, for TE mode, f /f is equal to 2, which is well above the frequency region for TE mode ranging from 1.4 and L8.
  • the capacitive rod may be disposed anywhere.
  • the capacitive rod in order to lower the resonant frequency of the fundamental wave TE the capacitive rod must be disposed at such a point at which the field of the fundamental mode TE is maximum as the center position of the wide plane of the waveguide which forms the resonator with the susceptance elements.
  • the capacitive rod should be disposed on the center line A-A' of the cavity at which the field of the same mode is minimum as shown in FIG. 3(c).
  • the capacitive rods should be positioned on the trisectional lines B-B and C-C' on the major plane along the longitudinal axis at which the field of the mode is minimum as shown in FIG. 3(d).
  • the element is on the center line A-A' of the cavity and also the center line E-E' on the major plane of the rectangular waveguide, at the two lines the field is minimum as shown in FIG. 3(e).
  • the positions common to the conditions for these modes are D and D at which the center line A-A of the cavity are in crossed relation with the trisectional lines 8-8 and C-C as shown in FIG. 3(d).
  • the TE mode has no problem in rejecting the second harmonic component.
  • the length I of the cavity of the rectangular waveguide section is made equal to %Ag, in contrast to the corresponding length m of the conventional bandpass filter and adjustable capacitive elements (screws) 41 and 41 are installed at two points, respectively, at which the trisectional lines 42 and 42' on the major plane of the rectangular waveguide 40 intersect with the bisector 43 of the interval 1 between the induction rods 44 and 44'.
  • FIG. 6 shows the attenuation vs. frequency characteristics of the second-harmonic-rejecting bandpass filter of FIG. 5.
  • this filter is capable of rejecting the higher modes in the frequency region twice as high as the resonant frequencies for fundamental mode. More specifically, this filter rejects the higher modes in the region where f/f ranges from 2.8 to 3.6, while the f/f, value for the passband for fundamental wave ranges from 1.4 to 1.8. Thus, the second harmonic wave component is eliminated.
  • FIGS. 7 through 9 show modifications of the embodiment in FIG. 5. These modifications are based on the fact that, as described above, the higher mode TE may be left out of consideration if the second harmonic is to be rejected and, therefore, the structure of the bandpass filter need not be symmetrical.

Accordingly, in FIG. 10, element 4-1 is installed at the intersection of trisectional line 42 and bisector 43 in the upper major plane of the waveguide while element 41' is installed at the intersection of the trisectional line 42 and bisector 43 in the lower major plane of the waveguide, whereby the elements 41 and 41' are oppositely disposed in opposite major planes of the waveguide.
