Abstract:
A filter is provided, and the filter includes two mutually coupled slow-wave resonators. Each resonator includes a coplanar waveguide (CPW) transmission line, a tapered CPW transmission line, and a ground stub, and can generate a slow-wave feature to push a high-order harmonic wave of a baseband signal to a high frequency, so as to implement a wide stopband feature. In addition, a slow-wave effect is used to properly design a size of a filter, to reduce an entire area of the filter and reduce costs. Moreover, two resonators are coupled, to enhance passband performance of the filter, increase bandwidth, increase in-passband flatness, and reduce an insertion loss.

Abstract:
A radio frequency transmitter is provided. The radio frequency transmitter includes a radio frequency front-end and a control circuit. The radio frequency front-end includes a current source set, a compensation circuit, and a matching network. The compensation circuit may compensate for a difference of load impedance between N current source subsets in the current source set. Therefore, an impedance mismatch of the current source set may be alleviated, and a power loss of the current source set may be avoided. This helps improve the efficiency of the radio frequency transmitter.
