    摘要: An in-line resonator filter has a linear array of three or more conductors. A first pair of adjacent conductors has inductive main coupling and oppositely signed capacitive main coupling, while a second pair of non-adjacent conductors has inductive cross-coupling. The first and second pairs have one conductor in common. Between the second pair of non-adjacent conductors, there is no direct ohmic connection that provides the corresponding inductive cross-coupling. The oppositely signed capacitive main coupling compensates for at least a portion of the inductive main coupling between the first pair of adjacent conductors. The in-line resonator filter is able to provide one or more transmission zeros without requiring any discrete bypass connectors that provide direct ohmic connection between pairs of non-adjacent conductors. As such, the in-line resonator filters can be smaller, less complex, and less susceptible to damage.

    摘要: For wireless cellular communications, a “smart” multi-band combiner system has a multi-band combiner and a passive inter-modulation (PIM) detection sub-system. The multi-band combiner combines multiple transmit signals in different downlink frequency bands into a single, multi-band transmit signal for transmission from a cell tower antenna. The PIM detection sub-system characterizes the frequency components in the multi-band transmit signal to predict PIM products and determine if any predicted PIM products might interfere with any receive signals in any uplink frequency bands. If so, the PIM detection sub-system generates a signal indicating the presence of such predicted interfering PIM products, and the system installer and/or the network administrator can take remedial action to prevent the PIM products from interfering with user communications.

    摘要: A (TM01) dielectric resonator has a metal housing, a dielectric insert, and a resilient element located between one end of the dielectric insert and the housing. The resilient element ensures physical contact between the housing and both ends of the dielectric insert over the entire operating temperature range of the resonator, thereby compensating for differences in the coefficients of thermal expansion of the materials used for the metal housing and the dielectric insert. In one embodiment, the dielectric insert is housed within a cylindrical tube between a top cover and a bottom end cap, the resilient element is an electrically non-conductive (silicone rubber) gasket, and the resonator has a thin, electrically conductive (aluminum) plate located (i) between the dielectric insert and the gasket and (ii) between the end cap and the tube to ensure a contiguous electrically conductive path from one end of the dielectric insert to the other.

    摘要: Bias tees are provided that include a radio frequency (RF) transmission line. The bias tees include a dielectric material that is configured to provide a capacitance between the RF transmission line and ground. The bias tees include a high-frequency port, a common port, and a low-frequency port, and the RF transmission line is coupled between the common port and the low-frequency port.
