Abstract: A tunable resonator is provided. The resonator includes a housing having a cavity. A resonator body is disposed adjacent to a first surface within the cavity. A gap is formed between the resonator body and the first surface. The resonator is tuned by controlling the size of the gap.

Abstract: A circuit for extending the dynamic range of an electronic circuit is provided. The circuit includes a first adjustable attenuation circuit having an input and an output and a control input. The control input is adapted to receive a control signal that adjusts the relative gain of the attenuation circuit. The circuit also includes at least one additional attenuation circuit coupled in parallel with the first adjustable attenuation circuit. The at least one additional attenuation circuit has a control input that is adapted to receive a control signal that adjusts the relative gain of the at least one additional attenuation circuit. The first and the at least one additional attenuation circuits are selectively controlled to adjust the level of signals in different frequency bands so as to extend the dynamic range of signals to be processed by the electronic circuit.

Abstract: A filter has a shell construction including a connection surface and a bar-like resonator in the shell construction. The bar-like resonator has an initial section having one end region thereof connected to the connection surface of the shell construction and an opposite end region. A substantially straight and elogate intermediate section extends from the opposite end region of the initial section to an end and a turning-point section extends from the end of the intermediate section to an end. A substantially straight and elongate end section has one end connected to the end of the turning-point section so as to extend adjacent to the intermediate section and supporting means connect to the connection surface of the shell construction for supporting the bar-like reasonator at least at one of the end section and turning-point.

Abstract: The invention relates to a connection arrangement, in particular an intermodulation-protected coaxial radio-frequency connection arrangement. The arrangement comprises interconnected connector parts (1, 101), wherein each connector part (1, 101) comprises a body (2, 102) and an outer contact member (3, 103) coupled to the body and each connector part (1, 101) further comprises an inner contact member (4, 104), the outer contact members (3, 103) of the connector parts being interconnected and the inner contact members (4, 104) of the connector parts being interconnected. In the connection arrangement, one connector part (101) is attached to an abutment surface (200) provided with a through hole (201) and the other connector part (1) is coupled to the connector part (101) attached to the abutment surface (200).
