Method of Port-Tuning
2. Attach TLs between resonators
-L
-C
Discrete ports do have a self impedance and a self capacitance

www.cst.com
Tuning variables:
Goal is to get Cx to zero and Z_TL to infinity
Circuit model consisting of the 3D CST MWS-Model plus C and L representing the
tuning elements. TransmissionLines represent the coupling between resonators

k12
Procedure:
1. At a submodel for a certain setting of the coupling screw the groupdelay is
computed as reference.
2. In a second step the length of the screw is varied and the impedance of the
trans-line varied such that the originial groupdelay is received.
This is done for a couple of screw positions.
