Abstract: The invention relates to a resonator filter comprising a housing structure (10), at least one resonator conductor (20) in the housing structure, and a regulating means (30) for regulating the frequency band of the resonator filter. The regulating means (30) is substantially transverse with respect to the propagation direction of the resonator conductor so that the regulating means (30) forms at least one turn around the resonator conductor (20) transversely to the propagation direction of the resonator conductor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filter and a frequency tuning element. The filter comprises a shell construction (2a to 2d) of conductive material with at least one section (14 to 16) and in the shell construction (2a to 2d) at least one resonator (17 to 19) of conductive material in said at least one section (14 to 16) for forming at least one resonance circuit (11 to 13). In the filter (1) the resonator (18) comprises as its extreme ends a base (18a) and a second end (18b), in said filter (1) the base (18a) of the resonator (18) being fastened to the shell construction (2a to 2d) and the second end (18b) of the resonator (18) being directed elsewhere towards the shell construction (2a to 2d) at a distance therefrom, the resonator (18) comprising a means (32) which directs its surface towards the shell construction (2a to 2d) and increases the cross-sectional area of the resonator to increase the capacitance between the resonator (18) and the shell construction (2a to 2d).
