Question

Loss factors of dielectric resonator, mechanical filter and ceramic filter?

Answer 1

Loss factor of dielectric resonator:

It is defined as the amount of power absorbed by the dielectric of resonator.

Loss factor of Mechanical filter:

In mechanical filter it is the measure of damping.

Loss factor of ceramic filter:

It is defined as the amount of power absorbed by the dielectric of ceramic filter.

Loss factor = tanδ
