Abstract
The rapid growth in wireless network has created a massive demand for concise
frequency selective components. Diplexers are key components in varieties of
communication systems. They are passive devices which implement frequency
domain multiplexing and allow various frequencies to share common channel. A
novel diplexer is a frequency selective device. It has three ports and six resonators
where common junction is replaced by one of the resonator. The diplexer forms an
all-resonator based structure and is designed and simulated in the CST Microwave
Studio. The diplexer is designed using standard dimensions for rectangular cavity to
operate in the X-band and it is based on the synthesis of coupling matrix of a three
port coupled resonator. The completed design consists of three ports; one input port
with centre frequency of 10 GHz and two output ports with centre frequencies 9.7
GHz and 10.3 GHz respectively with bandwidth approximately around 400MHz .The
response of the designed diplexer is carefully studied and the response is good as
compared to the response of the ideal diplexer.
