Resonant frequencies and coupling coefficient between two combline cavities, in the presence of other cavities, are obtained accurately using the mode-matching technique. The effect of iris dimensions and position on the electric and magnetic coupling is rigorously investigated. The corresponding data for two isolated cavities are included for comparison. The adjacent and nonadjacent couplings are rigorously investigated for different configurations of three coupled cavities. A four-pole slot-coupled elliptic combline filter is designed.

Abstract-Accurate determination of the generalized scattering matrix of the crossed waveguides junction, T -junction and right-angle bend containing a cylindrical post is presented. The generalized scattering matrix of the four port structure is obtained from those of the two ports right angle bend with different combinations of perfect electric and/or magnetic walls. The generalized scattering matrix of the right angle bend (quarter of the structure) is obtained by the mode matching method where the electromagnetic fields in rectangular waveguides are matched to those in a junction section formed by a sectoral region.
