This paper presents state-of-the-art high Q single-mode dielectric resonator (DR) cavity filters for PCS wireless base stations. DR cavity filters shrink the cavity size significantly more than waveguide cavity filters and offer about twice higher Q than coaxial resonators. Thus, they have important applications in wireless base stations operating below 2.5 GHz. Dual-mode and triple-mode DR cavity filters have existed for a while; however, single-mode DR cavity filters are predominant because they are cheaper to manufacture. This paper summarizes the main characteristics of TE01 mode DR cavities, including mode chart and field distribution, and compares cavity Q with waveguide and combline (coaxial) cavities. Dielectric combline and TM010 mode DR cavities are analyzed and compared to TE01 mode DR cavities. General filter design techniques are discussed, and several design examples are given to show how filter technology has developed.
