Application of Dielectric Resonators in Microwave Components

Dielectric resonators are being used in microwave filters and oscillators now that high-dielectric-constant, high-Q, temperature-stable ceramics have been developed. This paper reviews dielectric resonators with emphasis on applications, contains tutorial material, deseribes new 2-, 4-, and 6GHz bandpass filters, and presents several examples of oscillator applications. A complete blbliography to English language publications on dielectric resonators is included.
