Inhalt:
In this paper a mechanical multi-harmonic slide load tuning system with fundamental centre frequency of 2.15GHz is reported. It enables fundamental, second, and third harmonic frequency tuning. Reflection coefficient magnitudes of |Gammafund| = 0.938, |Gamma1st| = 0.955, |Gamma2nd| = 0.918 with maximum variation of 2.3% over 200MHz bandwidth has been obtained. The tuning is automated allowing high repeatability and fast operation.
