In the electronic device, no matter using which kind of frequency synthesis mode, due to its inherent characteristic, harmonic wave and miscellaneous can all be generated
It dissipates, these harmonic waves and the spuious normal work that electronic equipment can be interfered after amplifier amplifies.In addition modern radar and communication
Equipment increases the peak power and mean power of output in order to pursue farther operating distance, but high power transmitter is inevitable
Excessively high harmonic power can be brought, the harmonic energy meeting severe jamming of these high-power transmitters even burns electronic equipment.Separately
The outer underproof electronic equipment of output harmonic wave can not also obtain the factory licensing of Wireless Management Committee.Therefore it must penetrate
Frequency front end filters out the harmonic spectrum energy of electronic equipment output.
The low-pass filter for filtering out harmonic wave currently used for waveguide radio frequency front end mainly has: coaxial sugarcoated haws shape low-pass filtering
Device.The low-pass filter of sugarcoated haws structure is functional, and structure is simple, is widely used.
But since the transmission response curve that the low-pass filter of sugarcoated haws form does not have is Chebyshev's response curve, do not have
Transmission zero, it is therefore necessary to many ranks that could obtain preferable Out-of-band rejection characteristic.This results in the volume of filter larger,
The especially lower frequency range of frequency, such as several hundred MHz frequency ranges.More additionally, due to the order of filter, Insertion Loss is big, can deteriorate system
Performance.In powerful application, since Insertion Loss is big, caused loss is big, and calorific value is big, may burn entire filtering
Device.
In order to overcome the shortcomings of the low-pass filter of conventional sugar cucurbit form, there is researcher to propose a kind of novel low pass
Filter, the frequency response curve of the low-pass filter meet elliptic function curve (have outside elliptic function response curve band and
Equal number of transmission zero in passband), therefore it is called Elliptic Function Type low-pass filter.For example, Chinese invention patent

The resonant element of dielectric-slab, transverse direction setting of the dielectric-slab across the top of the lengthwise cavity, the inductance element one
End and the tuning disk of the dielectric-slab connect, and the other end and the transmission pole connect.Both the above low-pass filter
All have that size is larger, and structure is complicated, part is more, and group reload request is high, and assembly precision is not easily controlled, and tuning screw is needed to carry out
The problems such as tuning.Additionally, due to there is tuning screw, electric field is concentrated at tuning screw, in high-power situation, it is easy at this

The equivalent-circuit model of resonator of the present invention is equivalent to big ground capacity one inductance very little of series connection
Inductance.The syntonizer is there are two resonance frequency, and transmission pole resonance frequency is in required transmission passband, transmission zero
Point resonance frequency is at desired Out-of-band rejection.Fig. 8, Figure 12, Figure 16 respectively illustrate first resonator in the present embodiment, second level
The frequency response curve of resonator, three-level resonator;It can be seen from the figure that the frequency response curve of resonator of the present invention all wraps
Containing a transmission zero, these transmission zeros constitute the Out-of-band rejection zero point of low-pass filter.The resonance of the transmission zero
Frequency meetsL and C is the size for being connected in series to the capacitor and inductance on ground respectively in formula.Specific capacitor
It can design to obtain by basic electricity principle with inductance, such as be obtained by business software ADS optimization Simulation.
Figure 17 is the frequency response curve of the low-pass filter.As seen from Figure 17, the low-pass filter because there are
Transmission zero is limited, if being n with the order of filter, the number of Out-of-band rejection zero point meets (n+1)/2 (n is odd number), n/2+1
(n is even number), therefore the low-pass filtering has extremely superior Out-of-band rejection performance.To low with common sugarcoated haws form
Bandpass filter, frequency response be Chebyshev's receptance function, reach same Out-of-band rejection characteristic then need at least 12 ranks with
On.
In summary, the transmission frequency response of low-pass filter of the present invention is elliptic function response, and there are multiple transmission zero
Point, it is only necessary to which less order can obtain biggish Out-of-band rejection, therefore volume compact, and Insertion Loss is small, is particularly suitable for applications in
To volume requirement height, high-power occasion.
In the case where identical index, the volume of low-pass filter of the present invention is less than conventional sugarcoated haws type low-pass filtering body
Long-pending 1/4, and Insertion Loss is smaller, cost is also lower.The volume of system, improves its performance where it can also be reduced accordingly, drops
Low cost.
Compared to conventional sugarcoated haws type low-pass filter, also there is low-pass filter of the present invention highest to inhibit up to 10 frequencys multiplication
Above advantage.
