The proposed filtering structure combines, for the first time, the modified TE 102 resonating mode with the modified TE 201 mode. The TE 201 mode is excited by placing a wide dielectric post inside a waveguide cavity. The main advantage of the new topology is that two transmission zeros can be synthesized in the insertion loss response of the filter, for a second order structure. Also there is a high flexibility on the location of the transmission zeros. They can be synthesized along the frequency axis for maximum selectivity, or as a pair of complex poles for phase equalization. %K Teoría de la Señal y las Comunicaciones %K Puesto dielectrico %K Filtros inductivos %K Ceros de transmisión %K Filtros transversales %K Filtros de onda guía %K Dielectric posts %K Doublet topology %K Inductive filters %K Transmission zeros %K Transversal filter %K Waveguide filter %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
