A Tri-band Impedance Transformer Using Stubbed Coupling Line
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a compact tri-band impedance transformer by utilizing stubbed coupling line for matching a load at three arbitrary frequencies is proposed. The transformer is composed of two parts, and each part is constructed from parallel-coupled transmission lines. Two structures with different configurations of the proposed transformer have been given and analyzed. Then, the close-form equations for the transformer parameters are derived analytically, and the corresponding analytical design approach is verified by numerical examples. To certify the validity of design formulas, an impedance transformer is fabricated and measured at 0.9/1.8/3.2GHz. Good experimental performances at each frequency are obtained, which are in good agreement with the simulated results.

Dual-Band Filter Using Quarter-Wavelength Resonators with Hybrid Feeding Structure
This study proposes a concurrent dual-band filter that consists of two single-band filters using quarter-wavelength resonators. The two single-band filters, having different feeding structures, can be designed separately. The lower-band filter has tapped feeding structure and the higher-band filter has coupling feeding structure where the input/output line and the lower-band resonator constitut...

In this paper, we present a tri-band filter design using tri-mode T-shaped branches connected by λ/4 transmission lines. By analyzing the input admittance of a T-shape branch with commensurate electrical lengths, three resonant modes with two transmission zeros between are found and design formulas are derived. The filter can be regarded as a combination of three bandpass filters with only one ...

Absfract—Impedance transforming networks are described which consist of short lengths of relatively high impedance transmission line alternating with short lengths of relatively low impedance line. The sections of transmission line are all exactly the same length (except for corrections for fringing capacitances), and the lengths of the line sections are typically short compared to a quarter wa...
