Abstract

Analysis of microwave resonators with dual-mode oscillations is conducted. A new type of resonators is discovered in which dual-node oscillations are observed. It represents a half-wave resonator with a short-circuit in the middle part. The length of such a resonator is twice less than the length of a widely used ring resonator.

It is shown that in resonators of the loop type combined frequency tuning of dual-mode oscillations is accomplished using capacity and inductance. In the loop-type resonators with a stub frequency tuning of dual-mode oscillations is accomplishing with two capacities synchronously changing their values according to a specific law. Resonance equations are obtained.
