A simple approach is introduced to design ridge waveguide (RWG) filters with evanescent waveguide (EWG) couplings based on the observation that when all inverters and all resonators of an inverter coupled filter are replaced by equal length EWG pieces and equal length RWG pieces respectively, all responses are destroyed (bandwidth changes, passband shifts away and passband ripple increases) but the number of reflection zeros are preserved. It is noticed that the targeted responses of this highly distorted filter can be recovered simply by tuning lengths of EWG and RWG pieces in a systematic manner. Two examples are presented.

Design of Selective Linear Phase Cross-Coupled Dielectric Resonator Filters Ozturk, Onur Ozan; Oruc, Sacid; Alicioglu, Bulent; Yıldırım, Nevzat (2018-11-02) In this paper, a highly selective linear phase filter is designed and implemented in cross-coupled form using dielectric resonators in Ku band to be used as a channel filter in IMUX of a satellite receiver. Extreme delay flatness is required: 1.5 nS delay ripple over 60 % of the passband and 12 nS near the band edges. The initial design is carried out as 10 resonator symmetric cross-coupled filter with all ideal inverter couplings realizing two finite transmission zeros (FTZ) satisfying also the delay flatn...
A computational procedure for estimating residual stresses and secondary plastic flow limits in nonlinearly strain hardening rotating shafts Eraslan, Ahmet Nedim (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-03-01) A computational procedure to estimate the residual stress distributions and the limit angular speeds for avoiding secondary plastic deformation in nonlinearly strain hardening rotating elastic-plastic shafts is given. The model is based on von Mises yield condition, J(2) deformation theory and a Swift-type hardening law. The boundary value problem for the governing nonlinear differential equation is solved by a shooting method using Newton iterations with numerically approximated tangent. Solid as well as h...
Waveguide filters with ridged and unequal width resonators Yıldırım, Nevzat; Hizal, A (2005-06-17) Analytical expressions are developed for characterization of ridged / finned waveguides for use in the design of direct coupled waveguide filters with ridged and / or unequal width resonators. The analytical expressions are used to control the harmonic passbands and higher order modes. A survey is made for comparison of responses of waveguide filters using unequal width resonators and unequal ridge resonators. it is found that ridged resonators are more effective in suppressing the spurious passbands in the...
An efficient local search method guided by gradient information for discrete coefficient FIR filter design Çiloğlu, Tolga (2002-10-01) A new local search method for the design of linear phase FIR filters with discrete valued coefficients is introduced in this paper. Conventional minimax criterion and normalized peak ripple magnitude (NPRM) are taken as objective functions. The principle is to search along low gradient routes with priority and to direct the search toward steeper sides as improved solutions cease to appear. The characteristics of the objective functions have been explained and used to devise the method. The method is novel i...
On Miniaturization and Performance Improvement of Planar Wideband Bandpass Filters Without Coupled Lines Alicioglu, Bulent; Yıldırım, Nevzat (2009-10-01) Two classical approaches are compared in various respects for the design of wideband planar BPF's without parallel coupled lines, namely, BPF's designed by pole placement with contributing Unit Elements (UE) and inverter coupled resonator filters designed from LP prototypes. It is shown that the circuit obtained by direct BP synthesis is a special case of inverter coupled filter with inverters converted into single Unit Elements. It is also shown that if the inverters are converted into odd number of UE's t...
