Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to tunable radio frequency band filter, in particular, a kind of micro-strip tunable radio frequency filter circuit with constant absolute bandwidth.
Background technology
In today that information technology develops rapidly, microwave communication frequency resource becomes growing tension, and the application indexes of microwave filter is had higher requirement.Therefore develop high performance wave filter in the short term and become the requirement of key technology.This certainly will require to enter microwave filter deeper into research.
Tunable radio frequency wave filter is the core devices of multifrequency, frequency hopping, restructural radio-frequency front-end, and one of its key performance is the stablizing of pass-band performance in tuning process.Tunable radio frequency wave filter is generally faced with defect: be especially embodied in Modern Communication System, the absolute bandwidth of many wireless channels is invariable, therefore, when tunable optic filter is applied in this occasion, it is necessary to when tuning mid frequency, the absolute bandwidth of passband and waveform keep invariable.But, in prior art, along with the change of mid frequency, absolute bandwidth is acute variation often.
Theoretical according to tradition (fixed frequency responses) filter synthesis, the normalized frequency response characteristic of wave filter can be determined by its normalizated unit transformation matrix (Metzler matrix), and Metzler matrix can be determined by the coupling matrix (k matrix) between resonators at different levels:
Wherein, ABW is passband absolute bandwidth, f0It it is passband central frequency;ki,j(i, j=1,2 ...) represent as viewed from the coefficient of coup between source i-stage and j level resonator.To obtain ABW stable in tuning process, then need stable ki,j, f0.Need for this to realize coefficient of coup ki,jWith passband central frequency f0Decline and increase.
For basic LC coupled resonance loop, its coupling channel unity-coefficient-of-coupling k can be written as:
| k |=| MC-EC | (2)
Wherein, MC=Lm/ L is magnetic coupling coefficient (LmRepresent that between resonator, equivalent coupled inductance, L are resonator equivalent tank inductance), EC=Cm/ C is electric coupling coefficient (CmRepresent that between resonator, equivalent binding capacitance, C are resonator equivalent tank electric capacity).The resonant frequency of LC resonant tank can be similar to and be written as:
So, it is possible to realize tuning by L, C, again through LmAnd CmRealize coefficient of coup regulation and control further.But the high-performance that RF microelectronic technique is supported at present, the electricity being easily integrated adjust device main or semiconductor variable container piece.And couple electric capacity CmLess, it is difficult to direct regulation and control.Therefore existing major part tunable filter mainly adopts magnetic coupling to be that main, thermocouple is combined into auxiliary hybrid coupled mode.
By formula (2) and (3) it can be seen that along with the increase of C, its resonant frequency declines, and be auxiliary owing to magnetic is main, electricity, therefore its coefficient of coup will rise, and regulate and control slope by coupling the ratio of electric capacity and resonant capacitance, thus the ABW stablized in tuning process.Correlation technique is found in the many scientific papers delivered, as: " Sang-JunePark;Rebeiz,G.M.,Low-LossTwo-PoleTunableFiltersWithThreeDifferentPredefinedBandwidthCharacteristics,inMicrowaveTheoryandTechniques,IEEETransactionson,vol.56,no.5,pp.1137-1148,May2008”、“ChuanGe;Xiao-WeiZhu, Highly-SelectiveTunableBandpassFilterWithTwo-PathMixedCo upling, inMicrowaveandWirelessComponentsLetters, IEEE, vol.24, no.7, pp.451-453, July2014 " etc..
But, magnetic coupling is that main, thermocouple is combined into auxiliary hybrid coupled mode be combined into main, magnetic coupling with thermocouple be compared with auxiliary hybrid coupled mode, limit the design of the tunable filter topologys such as cross-couplings, for this reason, it is necessary to build thermocouple, to be combined into main, magnetic coupling be auxiliary tunable filter bandwidth antihunt means.
