This paper proposes a triple-mode dielectric-loaded cylindrical cavity diplexer by using a novel packaging technique for long term evolution (LTE) base station applications. Four metal cavities, loaded by a triple-mode dielectric resonator (DR), are designed to resonate at two different frequencies for the diplexer operation. In this context, three resonant modes of a single cavity are classified as a TM mode and a pair of hybrid degenerate modes (HE modes). The two degenerate modes in the same cavity are properly excited by employing an off-centered DR instead of a traditional corner-cut structure as a perturbation element. Finally, such a diplexer is designed and fabricated, and good agreement between measurement and simulation is achieved.
