Description
Technical field:
the invention belongs to the technical field of microwave flexible filters, and relates to a rectangular corrugated metal strip sputtering ITO film equalization filtering SSPPs transmission line and a filter, wherein the filter is made of a flexible PET material and works in a microwave frequency band and has in-band amplitude equalization and out-of-band interference filtering functions.
The background technology is as follows:
in the existing broadband wireless electronic equipment, the maximum amplitude fluctuation difference caused by electromagnetic space propagation, microwave device frequency response and the like at different frequencies in a frequency band can reach 10dB, and the uneven amplitude-frequency response can cause radio signal distortion, influence the signal-to-noise ratio of fast Fourier transform, reduce the digital signal demodulation quality of the wireless equipment and increase the bit error rate. At present, the amplitude equalization is mostly processed in a digital domain, however, in the new trend of the development of electronic equipment to radio frequency direct sampling, the broadband digital amplitude equalization processing faces the new problems of excessive resource use, complicated tap coefficient, excessive power consumption of a multiplier and the like, and brings great challenges to the resources of a communication place. Although a microwave amplitude equalizer capable of being realized in hardware exists at present, most of the microwave amplitude equalizers adopt a resonant structure of a feeder loading discrete resistor and a quarter-wavelength resonant line, have continuous periodic spurious response on the whole frequency spectrum, and easily influence a high stop band suppression degree which can be realized by a filter through various technical means when being cascaded at the front end of electronic equipment, so that the periodic spurious response of the microwave amplitude equalizer needs to be improved through a new method.
Artificial surface plasmon (Spoof Surface Plasmon Polaritons, SSPPs) microwave devices are a recent research hotspot. Since 2004, it was discovered that adding periodic distributed holes to metal surfaces can reduce the surface plasmon frequency to the microwave frequency band, various structures of SSPPs have been proposed and used for microwave device design. Unlike conventional TEM transmission lines, SSPPs have surface electromagnetic dispersion that can prevent the propagation of electromagnetic energy above progressive frequencies over structures. The existing SSPPs filter synthesizes flat frequency response in the passband to realize standard filtering characteristics, but cannot compensate the amplitude of an electronic system with larger amplitude difference. While conventional microwave equalizers can compensate for amplitude non-uniformities in electronic systems, the continuous periodic spurious bands that the stop band has degrade the stop band rejection capability of the filter when cascaded to the microwave front-end of the electronic system.
At present, the amplitude compensation of an electronic system is realized in digital signal processing, and as electronic equipment gradually supports more and more communication standards, the instantaneous bandwidth of the electronic system is wider and wider, and the digital amplitude equalization is a universal amplitude compensation means in industry, but is in face of the future broadband or ultra-broadband wireless communication application, a large amount of digital resources of digital devices are required to be occupied, so that the amplitude equalization is required to be put into a microwave domain for processing. The traditional microwave amplitude equalizer has the problem of single function at present, and 1) the parasitic frequency band with the period exists outside the band, so that the deterioration of the out-of-band suppression of an electronic system is still easy to cause, and the working performance is reduced; 2) The problem of large resource occupancy rate of balanced processing in a digital domain in broadband electronic equipment is solved; 3) The problems of in-band amplitude equalization and out-of-band interference filtering are simultaneously realized on one microwave device; 4) The microwave device with the amplitude balancing function realizes the problem of structure flexibility; 5) The problem of poor in-band reflection coefficient of the equalization filter.
