1156 results about "Dielectric resonator" patented technology

A dielectric resonator is a piece of dielectric (nonconductive) material, usually ceramic, that is designed to function as a resonator for radio waves, generally in the microwave and millimeter wave bands. The microwaves are confined inside the resonator material by the abrupt change in permittivity at the surface, and bounce back and forth between the sides. At certain frequencies, the resonant frequencies, the microwaves form standing waves in the resonator, oscillating with large amplitudes. Dielectric resonators generally consist of a "puck" of ceramic that has a large dielectric constant and a low dissipation factor. The resonant frequency is determined by the overall physical dimensions of the resonator and the dielectric constant of the material.

Method and device for measuring dielectric constant

The sample measuring face of a dielectric resonator (20) is placed near a standard sample having a known dielectric constant at a fixed interval D. While appropriately varying the dielectric constant and thickness of the standard sample under the above condition, the variation of the resonance frequency of the dielectric resonator (20) is measured for each varied dielectric constant and thickness to draw a calibration curve of the varied resonance frequency depending on the dielectric constant and thickness. Under the same condition where calibration curve is drawn, the variation of the resonance frequency of the dielectric resonator (20) for a sample having a known thickness is measured. The dielectric constant of the sample is found from the measurement value and the calibration curve. The dielectric constant of not only a sheetlike sample but also a three-dimensional molded article or a liquid sample can be measured easily.

Multimode dielectric resonator device, dielectric filter, composite dielectric filter and communication device

Two TE modes whose electric-field rotating planes have a perpendicular relationship are coupled independently of the coupling between two TM modes whose electric-field directions have the same respective perpendicular relationships. In a multimode dielectric resonator device producing four modes: TM01δ_x mode, TM01δ_y mode, TE01δ_x mode, and TE01δ_y mode, protrusions (Pe1), (Pe2) are disposed on an upper-layer (La) and a lower-layer of a dielectric core (1) to cause a difference in effective dielectric constants of individual parts through which even-mode and odd-mode electric flux of the TE coupling modes passes. A protrusion (Pc) is formed on a middle-layer Lb of the dielectric core (1) such that the effective dielectric constants of the parts through which even-mode and odd-mode electric flux of the TM coupling modes pass become substantially equal. Thereby, the TE01δ_x mode and TE01δ_y mode are coupled while restraining the coupling of the TM01δ_x mode and the TM01δ_y mode.
