Now I need to design a rectangular waveguide filter on Ka-band.
I find a useful page, www.guidedwavetech.com. But is there anyone can introduce me some sources discussing the details of designing these rectangular waveguide filter? I mean materials on how to calculate thickness, length, intervals.
you should use the mode-matched method to compute the parameters for your filter,it is very difficult, an other ways to design the filter is to use more cavity resonantor,it is relative easy,so it is a hard job to design the waveguide filter from a beginner
Yes. It's really difficult for me. Actually many people referenced Foundations for microwave, Collin, in their papers. But I checked the book. It never mentions how to determin the thickness of the iris etc.
i have also studied in it for a long time,besides books like:Theory and Design of Microwave Filters,i also make reference to IEEE papers,maybe we could learn from each other
