Abstract: Systems and methods for phasing line holders are described herein. In certain embodiments, an apparatus includes a groove in a conductive body. Additionally, the apparatus includes a phasing line for electrically coupling a plurality of components, the phasing line extending through the groove. Further, the apparatus includes a holder inserted into the groove, the holder maintaining the phasing line at a specific position in relation to a plurality of groove surfaces, wherein a plurality of holder surfaces apply sufficient pressure to the plurality of groove surfaces to secure the holder within the groove.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dielectric TM01 mode resonators are described herein. In certain embodiments, a system includes one or more electronic devices, wherein an electronic device a first input signal and provides an output signal. Further, the electronic device includes a conductive body enclosing a cavity, wherein the cavity has an interior surface. Additionally, the electronic device includes one or more dielectric resonators, wherein a dielectric resonator in the one or more dielectric resonators comprises two or more portions that are shaped differently than one another and has an axial center cavity formed therein. Moreover, the electronic device includes one or more tuning elements inserted through an external surface of the conductive body, the one or more tuning elements extending through the external surface into the axial center cavity, wherein a distance that the one or more tuning elements extend into the axial center cavity is adjustable.
