Preparation method of dual-band polarization sensitive band-stop filter
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication devices and micromachining, in particular to a dual-band polarization sensitive band-stop filter and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The filter is used as a frequency selection device and has the main function of blocking unwanted signals in the field of wireless communication, so that signals with target frequencies pass through, and the signal-to-noise ratio is improved to improve the communication effect. The traditional filter is usually manufactured by Printed Circuit Board (PCB) technology, i.e. 35um thick copper is printed on a dielectric substrate, and the filter manufactured by the method is difficult to meet the performance requirements of being light, thin, flexible, and therefore is not suitable for portable and wearable applications. With the rapid development of wireless communication and internet of things technologies, the demand for light, thin, portable and wearable electronic devices is increasing day by day. Therefore, the design of a flexible, light and thin high-performance filter has important significance for the development and the practicability of wearable electronic equipment. In addition, most of the existing filters for wireless communication can only realize single-frequency filtering. With the increase of communication frequency, the available communication frequency band is increased, and the application range of the dual-band device is wider. In addition, most of the existing filter devices are of symmetrical structures and are insensitive to polarization. In some specific cases, it is necessary to distinguish between two different polarized electromagnetic waves, TE and TM.
Based on the above problems, how to design a thin, light, flexible and wearable dual-band polarization sensitive band-stop filter for a wireless local area network frequency band becomes an urgent problem to be solved in the field.
