Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to resonator structures of radio communication apparatus. According to the invention, a micromechanical switch and a resonator are realized in a single combined structure. Combination of switch and resonator structures allows the manufacture of very compact filter and resonator structures needed for multi-system mobile communication means.
