The design and performance of a band pass filter for UWB communications is presented in this paper. Open loop resonators consisting of parallel arms (stubs) protruding from a 50Ω transmission line create the required rejection bands. The arms height, width and spacing control the bandwidth achieved by the filter. Each pair of arm creates one reject band in the transmission response. Three filte...

A new universal current mode filter circuit composed by three multi-output second generation current conveyor circuits (MOCCII), two controlled active resistances and two passive capacitors is presented. This filter can realize all the five standard filter functions, namely low pass, band pass, high pass, notch and all pass, without changing the circuit topology. TSPICE simulation using 0.18 μm...

A new biquadratic universal filter configuration realizing second-order low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass fiters using single current conveyor is proposed. Using this configuration high-pass, low-pass and band-pass fiters can be realized with little modifications. The circuit employs a secondgeneration current conveyor (CCII+), and only four passive components. Since the current conveyor is a ...

A new method of designing continuous-time monolithic filters derived from well known voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) is introduced. These VCOderived filters are capable of operating at very high frequencies in standard CMOS processes. Prototype lowpass and band-pass filter designed in a TSMC 0.25 μm process are discussed. Simulation results for the low-pass filter designed for a cutoff fr...

We studied a device that is commonly used for amplitude demodulation of respiratory muscle electromyograms (EMG). This device contains a rectifier and a low-pass filter called a modified third-order Paynter filter. We characterized this filter and found that it has good transient characteristics that suit its task as an EMG demodulator, but it has poor high-frequency attenuation that passes int...

The performance of a high pass filter (HPF) and a band pass filter (BPF) with and without defected ground structure (DGS) was analyzed in this specific work. The Defected ground structure includes rectangular and circular etched shapes in ground plane. Calculation and comparison of the response of both filters was done separately. Parameters of the proposed configuration were calculated at the ...

Abstract. According to recent literature, the most appropriate preprocessing to improve P300 detection is still unknown or at least there is no consensus about it. Research papers refer to different low-pass filters, high-pass filters, baseline, subsampling or feature selection. In this paper, using a database with 23 healthy subjects we compare the effect on the letter accuracy (single-trial d...

A band pass filter with tilted ladder shaped patch and U-shaped geometries is proposed in this paper. Feed are connected at the end of open ended stubs. Presented filter is suitable for the application of wireless application in L-band range. A flat passband response can be achieved when it is employed to implement a bandpass filter. The resonator also exhibits attenuation poles close to the ed...

The design of a novel band-pass filter with narrow-band features based on an electromagnetic resonator at 6.4 GHz is presented. A prototype is manufactured and characterized in terms of transmission and reflection coefficient. The selective passband and suppression of the second harmonic make the filter suitable to be used in a C band frequency range for radar systems and satellite/terrestrial ...

A superconducting microstrip half-wavelength resonator is proposed as a suitable band-pass filter for broadband moderate spectral resolution spectroscopy terahertz (THz) astronomy. The geometry has free range of an octave bandwidth without introducing spurious resonances, reaches high coupling efficiency in the pass-band and shows very rejection stop-band to minimize reflections cross-talk with...
