The generalized chebyshev substrate integrated waveguide diplexer

Abstract

A new generalized chebyshev substrate integrated waveguide diplexer is presented for high performance. The diplexer is designed with triplet topology based on substrate integrated waveguide technique, which exhibit the generalized chebyshev responses. The triplet topology can facilitate the resonator arrangements of diplexer design for compact size. This diplexer possesses of the advantages of SIW and the generalized chebyshev filters. All couplings, including the negative coupling, are realized by H-plane open windows. A diplexer is designed by using 3th order asymmetric generalized chebyshev filter. Measured results are good agreement with simulation results.
