V-band bandpass filter with continuously variable centre frequency
نویسندگان
چکیده
A second-order bandpass filter (BPF) with continuously variable centre frequency tuning is presented in this article. Evanescent-mode cavity resonators with variable capacitive loadings are used as tuning elements. Tuning is achieved by means of micro-electromechanical-systems (MEMS)-actuated highly conductive rigid fingers that feature an out-of-plane deflection. For an applied DC bias voltage between 0 and 27.3 V the centre frequency of the BPF is tuned from 67.4 to 63.2 GHz (4.2 GHz). For this frequency band, the fractional bandwidth (FBW) varies between 8.3 and 3.4% and the in-band insertion loss between 1.45 and 5 dB.

Fractal Bandpass Filter Using Y-shaped Dual-Mode Resonator for C-Band Receiver (Research Note)
In this study, a fractal, Y-shaped dual-mode resonator bandpass filter (BPF) with input-output cross-coupling is introduced. A parallel-coupling feed structure with a cross coupling has been used to generate two transmission zeroes (TZs) near the lower and upper cutoff frequency that can effectively improve the passband edge selectivity. Also, a fractal shaped based on conventional diamond and ...
متن کاملA Compact UWB Bandpass Filter with High Selectivity and Dual Notched-Band
A novel compact-sized ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter (BPF) is proposed in this paper. The proposed BPF is highly selective and is able to eliminate WLAN signals from 5.15-5.35 GHz, and downlink of X-band satellite communication signals from 7.25-7.75 GHz. Generally, a multiple-mode resonator (MMR), comprised of a U-shaped line, with two high impedance stubs connected to it, and one steppe...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Self-adjusting Bandwidth Bandpass Filter without IIR Bias
In this paper we introduce a simple, computationally inxepentsive, adaptive recursive structure for enhancing bandpass signals highly corrupted by broad-band noise. This adaptive algorithm, enhancing input signals, enables us to estimate the center frequency and the bandwidth of the input signal. In addition, an important feature of the proposed structure is that the conventional bias existing ...

An ultra-wide band band-pass filter using novel spiral stub-loaded triple-mode resonator (SSLTMR) is presented. New spiral stub loaded resonator is analyzed with odd and even modes analysis for this class of BPF, achieving higher band wide and size reduction. In order to have a good response characterized, two (SSL-TMRs) and two quarter wavelength digital coupled lines are used. This new design...
