ABSTRACT:
Tunable varactor diodes are utilized to adjust the filter frequency of a waveguide filter operating in evanescent mode. Because evanescent mode signals in a waveguide attenuate as they propagate, and because shunt capacitance between a waveguide and the surroundings can change the frequency at which the signals attenuate, controlling the shunt capacitance can filter the signals passing along the waveguide.
