    摘要: A field programmable filter array with high spectral isolation and reconfigurability. A bank of resonators can be programmed at will and on the fly to give any type of filtering response. The order, type and bandwidth of the filter are electronically reconfigured. Each subset of resonators can switch between bandstop and bandpass configurations and form custom filter shapes consisting of combinations of bandstop and bandpass filters. The filter can include a unit cell of a resonator with a series of switches to enable coupling to any of its nearest neighbors. The path in which the flow of energy takes through the array of resonators is dynamic, and the filtering function which is created is dialable on demand.

    摘要: A radio frequency (RF) micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) switch and high yield manufacturing method. The switch can be fabricated with very high yield despite the high variability of the manufacturing process parameters. The switch is fabricated with monocrystalline material, e.g., silicon, as the moving portion. The switch fabrication process is compatible with CMOS electronics fabricated on Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) substrates. The switch comprises a movable portion having conductive portion selectively positioned with a bias voltage to conductively bridge a gap in a signal line.
