Abstract:
A balun comprises at least two asymmetric coplanar striplines, a first of the striplines coupled to a signal input, and a second of the striplines coupled to a signal output, the at least two asymmetric coplanar striplines configured in a Marchand architecture to receive an unbalanced signal and to output a balanced signal.
Abstract:
A dual band balun filter that includes a first coupled-line section pair provided with a first terminal; a second coupled-line section pair configured to be connected to the first coupled-line section pair, a third coupled-line section pair, and a fourth coupled-line section pair, respectively, and the fourth coupled-line section pair is provided with a second terminal; the third coupled-line section pair is provided with a transmission line and is connected to a fifth coupled-line section pair that is provided with a third terminal; and each of the first to fifth coupled-line section pairs is formed with partial coupled stepped impedance resonators (SIRs).

Abstract:
An integrated balanced-filter which acts as a matching network, a balun and an extracted-pole bandpass filter is disclosed. The balanced-filter includes an unbalanced terminal, a first balanced terminal and a second balanced terminal, a first resonator connected to the unbalanced terminal, a second resonator connected to the first balanced terminal, and a third resonator connected to the second balanced terminal. The second resonator is positively coupled to the first resonator, and the third resonator is negatively coupled to the first resonator, which provides a balun function and a bandpass-filtering function. The balanced-filter further includes extracted-pole notch filters, which can introduce a transmission zero and implement matching network. The balanced-filter can be implemented in a multi-layered substrate, thereby reducing the size of the balanced-filter.
