Abstract From the Canadian patent

A multi-mode cavity for waveguide filters. The cavity comprises at least one waveguide segment with an elliptical cross-section. The axes of the waveguide segment are arranged at a given inclination angle with respect to the polarization of the incident TE field to provide a dual-mode cavity, with the ability to resonate two transverse fields (TE) with polarization planes orthogonal to each other. By adding an additional waveguide element to introduce a non-axial discontinuity a triple-mode cavity is obtained, thereby allowing for an additional longitudinal mode to resonate.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed January 29, 1997 and granted June 6, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended January 29, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 29, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
