DESCRIPTION:Dr. Simone Bastioli\n\nThe innovative concept of nonresonating 
 modes and how this has been recently exploited to extend the performance a
 nd capabilities of the state-of-art of microwave filter technology will be
  presented in this talk. Although the concept is presented by mostly focus
 ing on filters\, as these are the components where this new technique has 
 found large application over the past few years\, all general features are
  explained and illustrated in detail thus potentially paving the way for n
 ew applications involving other passive microwave components. After a brie
 f discussion highlighting the importance of microwave filters from a syste
 m perspective\, the main concept of the talk will be introduced by definin
 g what is a nonresonating mode and by illustrating what are the benefits o
 f this approach. The concept is then gradually explained by using some wav
 eguide as well as planar SIW examples\, as the rectangular waveguide techn
 ology is where these modes were first observed\; most importantly\, these 
 examples have been proved to considerably ease the understanding of the co
 ncepts from both students and non-experts perspectives. The general multim
 ode environment of these structures is described step-by-step and several 
 animations are introduced during the explanation thus really allowing the 
 audience to absorb the more general multimode concept that otherwise often
  remain an obscure myth for many microwave engineers. The presentation is 
 then extended to the most various filter technologies\, such as convention
 al coaxial structures\, dielectric resonators based architectures\, as wel
 l as more original mixed technologies. The presentation will also cover fe
 w examples regarding different applications such as three-port junctions f
 or duplexing purposes\, and showing how actually some well-established fou
 r-port components have indeed always “unconsciously” exploited some fo
 rm of nonresonating modes. Several manufacturing examples of actual produc
 ts developed at RS Microwave (Dr Bastioli‘s affiliation) are going to be
  presented along this talk\, thus also satisfying the more practical taste
  of an industry audience.\n\nCo-sponsored by: MTT-S AdCom MGA Committee\n\

 re this new technique has found large application over the past few years\

 ially paving the way for new applications involving other passive microwav

 owave filters from a system perspective\, the main concept of the talk wil
