Abstract :
The effect of the metalization thickness of the septum is incorporated into an efficient computer-aided design (CAD) program for E-plane filters. The method is mathematically exact and numerically efficient. The results agree well with experimental data. The effect of the metal thickness on filter performance is demonstrated with a Ku-band filter.
