Abstract(in English) We have developed a bandwidth tuning method for use in high-temperature superconducting (HTS) microstrip filters. Several H-shaped waveguides are placed between the resonators, and the bandwidth is adjusted by changing the switch states of the waveguides. The effects of using this method were evaluated using a filter composed of 3-pole half-wavelength straight-line resonators with an H-shaped waveguide between each pair and additional electric pads for post-tuning trimming. The filter was designed and fabricated to verify the feasibility of the proposed filter using Duroid substrate before using superconductor. The filter achieves a measured 1.55:1 tunable passband ratio. The measurement results showed that the H-shaped waveguides are effective in tuning the bandwidth.
