Resonance: The tendency of a system to oscillate at maximum
amplitude at a certain frequency.
Microwave resonators are tunable circuits used in microwave
oscillators, filters and frequency meters.
The operation of microwave resonators is very similar to that
of the lumped-element resonators (such as parallel and series
RLC resonant circuits) of circuit theory.
Transmission line sections can be used with various lengths
(nλg/2) and terminations (usually open or short circuited) to
form resonators.
Resonators can be constructed from closed sections of
waveguides.

Rectangular Waveguide Cavities
Resonators can be constructed from closed sections of waveguide.
Waveguide resonators are usually short circuited at both ends,
thus forming a closed box or cavity.
Standing waves are formed in the cavity (recall a standing wave is
a combination of two waves travelling in opposite directions).
Electric and magnetic energy is stored within the cavity.

Rectangular Waveguide Cavity
A set of mnl corresponds to a mode, where the indices m,n,l
refer to the number of variations in the standing wave pattern in
the x,y,z directions. TE101 stands for that a rectangular waveguide
cavity operating on a TE10 wave, and the length of the cavity is
half of the guide wavelength.
The lowest order modes in a rectangular cavity are the TM110,
TE101, and TE011 modes. Which of these modes is the dominant
mode depends on the relative dimensions of the resonator. If
b<a<d, the dominant resonant mode is TE101.
In order to properly design the coupling and the tuning devices
of the cavity, knowledge about the distribution of the fields in the
cavity is required. Dr. Talal Skaik 2012 IUG 6

•The cavity has walls with finite conductivity and is therefore losing stored energy. •The quality factor is: where 0 is the resonant angular frequency, W is the total energy, Pl is the power loss in the cavity.

Example : An air-filled rectangular waveguide has a=3cm , b=2cm. If a
cavity resonator is to be designed, find the length of cavity so the resonant frequency is 5.44 GHz for (a) TE101 mode, (b) TE102 mode
