Abstract :
Temperature characteristics of combline resonators and filters are investigated with a full wave simulation. For a given combline resonator, perfect temperature compensations may be achieved at two different resonant frequencies by adjusting the tuning screws. A 4 GHz 8-pole filter is designed and tested. Satisfactory temperature compensation is obtained.
