Tunable Cavity Resonators:
The objective of this project is to design a resonator with the capability to automatically alter its resonant characteristics in response to changes in its environment without altering the resonators' physical dimensions or degrading its Q.
A system of tuning wires is inserted into the resonator and attached to the inner surface of one or more walls through computer-controlled switches.
By opening and closing the switches, the fields within the resonator are altered, and thus the resonant frequency can be changed.
The measurement setup and measurement results of the ability of the tunable cavity to retune itself for various perturbations are shown below. More information can be found by contacting me or reading our paper:
