Method of tuning a planar filter with additional coupling created by bent resonator elements
摘要:
A bandpass planar filter (110) comprises a signal input and a signal output (116), and one or more resonator elements (112, 114) coupled serially end-to-end between the input and the output across gaps (118) that separate the elements from the input, the output, and from each other. The resonator elements form a serpentine shape such that at least two portions of the serpentine shape are positioned side-by-side parallel to each other separated by a spacing (120). The side-by-side portions effect additional coupling between the resonator elements that forms a notch (transmission zero) (204) in the passband (200) of the filter. The input, output, and resonator elements are etched into one surface (106) of a PC board (102); the other surface (104) of the PC board forms a ground plane of the filter, and the substrate (103) of the PC board forms a dielectric of the filter.
