Novel Model

This paper proposes a method of the coupling modal, which is able to miniaturize the tunable cavity filter while keeping its bandwidth balancing. The filter consists of a tunable cavity dual-bandpass filter and a triangular twin-loop as its inter-cavities coupling structure. We analyzed and calculated the bandwidth of the filter changing with the size and position of the triangular twin-loop. To prove the advancement of the design, a tunable coaxial cavity dual-bandpass filter operating at 230MHz and 409MHz was fabricated and measured. The size is less then a half that of the conventional tunable filter with same specifications. The insertion loss is lower than 1.2dB at operating frequencies. And the bandwidth in lowband and highband are both more than 2.5MHz with the insertion loss less then 3dB. Experiment results and theoretic analysis agree well. This novel model can contribute to the miniaturization of RF and microwave systems with high quality.

Abstract In this letter, a miniaturized Band Pass Filter (BPF) with wide stopband centered at 0.350 GHz for TETRA band applications is proposed using a Spiral Short Circuit quarter wavelength Stepped Impedance Resonator (SSC-SIR) and a stub loaded on feed line for enhancement of rejection level in the stopband. Spiral configuration of the resonator is used for the miniaturization of BPF. The proposed BPF provides a 3dB fractional bandwidth of 13.7 % with two transmission zeros in the lower and upper stopband to provide good selectivity and four transmission zeros which provide wide stopband upto 6.86f0. Proposed BPF has a very compact size of 0.064λg×0.062λg.

Abstract A new design approach for a stepped impedance resonator (SIR) dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) with high multi-spurious suppression is proposed in this paper. The external coupling property of an SIR at multi-order resonant frequencies is fully studied. Different input impedances at desired frequencies are achieved by optimizing the unequal impedance transformer. The new solution shows the freedom in the choice of tapping point. The external quality values of multi-order harmonics vary with the shift of the tapping position. Wide upper stop-band rejection is realized by mismatching Qe at the unwanted harmonic frequencies, while keeping the Qe suitable for operating dual band to obtain good in-band performance. A traditional dual-band BPF and a novel practical BPF operated at 2.45/5.25 GHz are designed and fabricated to demonstrate the above idea. Good simulated and measured results are presented.
