Abstract

Abstract A stripline filter includes a cylindrical substrate made of a dielectric material and having inner and outer surfaces with opposite ends thereof opened. A ground electrode is deposited on the inner surface, and on the inner surface, interdigitated electrodes are deposited. Alternately, the ground electrode may be deposited on the outer surface, and the interdigitated electrodes may be deposited on the inner surface. Thus, the stripline filter can be arranged in a compact size. Also, the ground electrode provided on the outer surface prevents electromagnetic waves generated from the interdigitated electrodes from being emitted out.
