    Abstract: A cross-coupling structure for dielectric cavity filters includes a base and a tuner. The base is communicated with plural resonant cavities, a side through hole and a blind hole, and has a first channel formed between two adjacent resonant cavities which are not used for producing cross-coupling, and a second channel the resonant cavities formed between two adjacent resonant cavities which are used for producing cross-coupling. The side through hole is penetrated through the base and communicated with the second channel. The blind hole is formed on a wall of the second channel and has an opening facing the side through hole. The tuner is entered into the second channel from the side through hole and extended into the blind hole and can be adjustably moved between the opening of the blind hole and the bottom of the blind hole to set a cross-coupling amount target value.

  • Publication number: 20130282332
    Abstract: A method of obtaining a linear curve fitting conversion equation for use with a non-linear measurement system is introduced. The linear curve fitting conversion equation converts a subject value entered into the non-linear measurement system into a measured value for simulating a linear curve. The method includes substituting a known preset input value, an output value generated by entering the preset input value into the non-linear measurement system, and n operator settings falling within the measurement range of the non-linear measurement system into a (n-1)th order polynomial to form simultaneous equations including a number n of polynomials and thereby obtain a fitting parameter for creating the linear curve fitting conversion equation for use with the non-linear measurement system, thereby dispensing with the hassles of processing a large amount of data required for creating a conversion rule.
