  • Patent number: 11444361
    Abstract: A switching device for connecting coaxial cables is specified. The switching device includes: a housing with at least two coaxial connectors; a switch rotor arranged in the housing such that it can be rotated about a longitudinal axis; and a first electrical connection, which passes through the switch rotor and in a predetermined position of the switch rotor capacitively couples a first coaxial connector and a second coaxial connector, thus creating an electrical connection between the first coaxial connector and the second coaxial connector.

  • Patent number: 11424523
    Abstract: A resonator for a filter includes a resonator housing, in which a resonator space is formed. The resonator further includes a dielectric arrangement arranged in the resonator space including a first dielectric element and a second dielectric element, the first dielectric element and the second dielectric element being separated from one another in such a way that a gap is formed between them. Both a first thermal expansion coefficient of the first dielectric element and a second thermal expansion coefficient of the second dielectric element are less than a thermal expansion coefficient of the resonator housing. A temperature-related variation of the resonant frequency of the resonator can therefore be compensated for.

  • Patent number: 10686237
    Abstract: A resonator for a channel filter is provided. The resonator includes a cavity; a sidewall which at least partially surrounds and forms the cavity, wherein at least one lateral opening is provided in the sidewall; a first adjusting unit with an adjusting element. A first recess is provided at the adjusting element. The adjusting unit is arranged such that the adjusting element adjoins the lateral opening. The adjusting element is movable relative to the lateral opening such that a resonator frequency of the resonator can be adjusted depending on a position of the adjusting element with reference to the lateral opening.
