Embodiment Construction
[0054] will now refer to Figure 1a and 1b to describe an example of a multimode filter.
[0055] The basis of the invention is the use of a specific type of coupling aperture to couple signals into and out of a multimode resonator while simultaneously exciting two or more modes within (or coupling energy from) the resonator.
[0056] In this example, filter 100 includes a resonator body 110 encapsulated in a metallization layer (which is not shown for clarity). At least two vias are formed in the metallization layer: an in-coupling via 120 and an out-coupling via 130 . These small holes consist of the absence of metallization, where the rest of the resonator body is essentially encapsulated in its metallization layer. Apertures 120 and 130 may be formed, for example, by chemically or mechanically etching metallisation around resonator body 110 to remove the metallisation and thereby form one or more apertures. Other means may also be used to form the aperture or apertures, ...
