This paper presents a novel ultracompact narrow bandpass filter with high selectivity. The proposed filter is composed of cascading two basic cells. Each cell is basically a microstrip line loaded with a quasiplanar resonator and series gaps which can be fabricated using a standard multilayer printed circuit board technology. The structure is analyzed through an equivalent circuit and full-wave simulations. The simulation results are compared with experimental measurements demonstrating a good agreement between them. The measurement indicates that the realized bandpass filter at the center frequency of 1 GHz has a fractional bandwidth of 2.2%. Most importantly, in comparison with other similar recent works, it is shown that the proposed filter has the smallest size.

This paper presents a novel miniaturized substrate integrated waveguide filter by combining both half-mode resonators and capacitive loading on a conventional two-layer printed circuit board (PCB) process. The resulting synthesis is successfully demonstrated in an long-term evolution application by means of a third-order filter of <225 mm2in size while featuring 2.3 dB insertion loss over a 5.5% fractional bandwidth at 3.7 GHz. Good first-iteration agreement between simulated and measured results, both in center frequency and bandwidth, are achieved.

In this paper, a bandpass filter (BPF) was developed utilizing GaAs-based integrated passive device technology which comprises an asymmetrical spiral inductor and an interleaved array capacitor, possessing two tuning modes: coarse-tuning and fine-tuning. By altering the number of layers and radius of the GaAs substrate metal spheres, capacitance variation from 0.071 to 0.106 pF for coarse-tuning, and of 0.0015 pF for fine-tuning, can be achieved. Five air bridges were employed in the asymmetrical spiral inductor to save space, contributing to a compact chip area of 0.015λ0 × 0.018λ0. The BPF chip was installed on the printed circuit board artwork with Au bonding wire and attached to a die sink. Measured results demonstrate an insertion loss of 0.38 dB and a return loss of 21.5 dB at the center frequency of 2.147 GHz. Furthermore, under coarse-tuning mode, variation in the center frequency from 1.956 to 2.147 GHz and transmission zero frequency from 4.721 to 5.225 GHz can be achieved. Under fine-tuning mode, the minimum tuning value and the average tuning value of the proposed BPF can be accurate to 1.0 MHz and 4.7 MHz for the center frequency and 1.0 MHz and 12.8 MHz for the transmission zero frequency, respectively.

A novel method to design a wideband substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) bandpass filter (BPF) with compact size, wide stopband and high selectivity is presented. In this method some unique electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) cells are periodically etched on the top layer of SIW to realize a wide passband propagating below the equivalent waveguide cutoff frequency. By changing the configuration of EBG cells, undesired harmonics in upper stopband can be suppressed and a wideband BPF with wide stopband can be obtained. By symmetrically loading two complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs) on the tapered gradient lines of the input/output ports, a transmission zero near the passband can be introduced, and it makes the frequency selectivity of upper sideband improve significantly. As a verification, a wideband SIW BPF with a 3.02 GHz absolute bandwidth (ABW) and a 64.7% fractional bandwidth (FBW) centered at 4.67 GHz is designed, simulated, manufactured, and measured. The results of the experiment and simulation are in good agreement.

This paper proposes a method for designing a quadruple-mode wideband bandpass filter using off-centered perturbed metallic cylinders in a rectangular waveguide cavity with compact size and improved out-of-band rejection. Two off-centered perturbation cylinders were placed at the bottom of the rectangular waveguide cavity along with a pair of perpendicularly-fed coaxial lines, which excited four quasi-transverse magnetic (TM) modes to realize the desired passband. The height of the waveguide cavity and the shape of the perturbation cylinders were exploited to achieve an all quasi-TM modes filter with good out-of-band rejection and sharp skirt selectivity. The proposed filter operates at 2.93 GHz center frequency with 38% wide fractional bandwidth (FBW). The proposed filter is fabricated using aluminum. The measured and simulated results are in good agreement with each other.

A new concept of an ultrawide bandwidth 180°-hybrid-coupler is presented. The ultrawideband design approach is based on the excitation of a coplanar waveguide (CPW) mode and a coupled slot line (CSL) mode in the same double slotted planar waveguide. The coupler is suitable for realization in planar printed circuit board technology. For verification of the new concept a prototype was designed for the frequency range from 3 GHz to 11 GHz, built, and measured. The measurement results presented in this paper show a good agreement between simulation and measurement and demonstrate the very broadband performance of the new device. The demonstrated coupler with a size of 40 mm × 55 mm exhibits a fractional bandwidth of 114% centered at 7 GHz with a maximum amplitude imbalance of 0.8 dB and a maximum phase imbalance of 5°.

Ada banyak teknologi mobile broadband wireless access (m-BWA) yang saat ini digunakan, agar bisa mencakup seluruh teknologi m-BWA yang ada dalam sebuah perangkat maka diperlukan teknologi multiband . Salah satu komponen penting yang mendukung perkembangan teknologi m-BWA adalah bandpass filter (BPF), yang berfungsi untuk memilah-milah dan mengisolasi band yang spesifik dari interferensi pada transceiver radio frequency (RF). Pada penelitian ini akan dirancang quadband BPF yang beroperasi pada frekuensi tengah 950 MHz dan 1,85 GHz untuk aplikasi GSM, 2,35 GHz untuk aplikasi WiMAX, dan 2,65 GHz untuk aplikasi LTE secara simultan. Rangkaian quadband BPF dibangun dan dikembangkan dari konsep dualband BPF dengan menambahkan sejumlah cross coupling pada inductive coupling BPF tersebut untuk menghasilkan zero pada frekuensi tertentu yang diharapkan menggunakan komponen lumped. BPF yang dirancang memiliki spesifikasi, input return loss (S11) < -10 dB, insertion loss (S21) > -3 dB, dan voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) antara 1 – 2, dan group delay kurang dari 10 ns. Perancangan dilakukan menggunakan perangkat lunak Advance Design System (ADS) dan kemudian difabrikasi berbasis printed circuit board (PCB). Hasil simulasi BPF menunjukkan kinerja quadband BPF memenuhi kriteria perancangan sedangkan hasil fabrikasi mengalami pergeseran.

Abstract. This paper addresses the development of flow sensors optimized for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems. The sensors are based on the printed circuit board technology facilitating robust, flexible (in terms of layout), and cost-effective devices. Two approaches for measuring fluid quantities like flow velocity over the whole cross section are investigated in this context. The first one relies on hot-film transduction and stands out for its simplicity, but also shows some severe limitations, which can be circumvented by the second approach based on calorimetric transduction. Supported by extensive numerical simulations, several sensor embodiments were investigated and fabricated. After experimental characterization, measurement and simulation results were compared, which turned out to be in good agreement.

This work presents a new unit cell electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) design based on HoneyComb geometry (HCPBG). The new HCPBG takes a uniplanar geometry (UCPBG—uniplanar compact PBG) as a reference and follows similar design methods for defining geometric parameters. The new structure’s advantages consist of reduced occupied printed circuit board area and flexible rejection band properties. In addition, rotation and slight geometry modification in the HCPBG cell allow changing the profile of the attenuation frequency range. This paper also presents a reconfigurable unit cell HCPBG filter strategy, for which the resonance center frequency is shifted by changing the gap capacitance with the assistance of varactor diodes. The HCPBG filter and reconfiguration behavior is demonstrated through electromagnetic (EM) simulations over the FR1 band of the 5G communication network. Intelligent communication systems can use the reconfiguration feature to select the optimal operating frequency for maximum attenuation of unwanted or interfering signals, such as harmonics or intermodulation products.
