The negative
coupling groove for the
dielectric filter is connected with two adjacent
dielectric resonators of the
dielectric filter and is a step-shaped blind groove formed by communicating a shallow blind groove and a deep blind groove, the center line of the shallow blind groove is perpendicular to the center line of the deep blind groove, and the shallow blind groove is provided with an opening in the upper surface, the front surface and / or the rear surface of a dielectric filter body. The groove depth of the shallow blind groove in the vertical direction is smaller than the hole depth of the debugging hole, the deep blind groove is only provided with an opening in the upper surface of the dielectric filter body, and the groove depth of the deep blind groove in the vertical direction is larger than the hole depth of the debugging hole in the
dielectric resonator and smaller than two times of the hole depth of the debugging hole.
Capacitive coupling between the two dielectric resonators can be achieved, the negative
coupling strength can be changed by adjusting the length, width and depth of the deep blind groove and / or the shallow blind groove, the strength of a low-frequency end transmission zero point can be changed, shape and precision changes in the high-temperature
sintering process can be reduced, the
electrical performance is more stable, and the service life of the dielectric resonators is prolonged. And the volume ratio of the negative
coupling groove is reduced, and the structural strength is improved.
