A novel class of waveguide E ‐plane resonator structures using periodic metal septa for use at millimeter‐wave, submillimeter‐wave, and terahertz frequencies has been proposed. It aims to show that this type of resonator can be easily realized with a single metal insert within a rectangular waveguide. One type of resonator which used quarter‐wavelength metallic septa was employed. The simulated results for an air‐filled metal pipe rectangular waveguide resonator using periodic metallic septa at 37.80 GHz is presented. The measured frequency response of a rectangular waveguide E ‐plane resonator shows 30 dB rejection at 36 GHz. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 23: 311–312, 1999
