As mentioned above, resonator electrode 3 is centered on by first grounding electrode 6, second grounding electrode 7 and the 3rd grounding electrode 8 in such known bimodule band-pass filter.More particularly, first grounding electrode 6, second grounding electrode 7 and the 3rd grounding electrode 8 form waveguide, and thus, it is pseudo-(spurious) that the resonance in the waveguide tends to.
On the contrary, adopt formation according to bimodule band-pass filter 1, the first through hole electrode 9 of first preferred embodiment to suppress the unwanted false signal that the resonance by first grounding electrode 6, second grounding electrode 7 and the 3rd grounding electrode 8 causes.This will be described referring to figs. 3 to 7 according to particular experiment.
In following experiment, the size of used dielectric substrate is that the long 1.0mm of the wide 3.2mm of 2.5mm is thick approximately, and wherein said dielectric substrate 2 is by comprising that magnesium and silicon are that the pottery of main component is made.Resonator electrode 3 has the long size of the wide 1.5mm of about 1.4mm, and aperture 3a has the area of about 0.54mm2.
Fig. 3 is illustrated in the S parameter frequency characteristic in the structure, has removed the resonator electrode 3 and first through hole electrode 9 in this structure from the bimodule band-pass filter 1 according to first preferred embodiment.Fig. 3 illustrates the frequency place that is resulted from about 26.46GHz of characteristic S11 by the resonance of arrow A indication.This resonance is corresponding to the resonance that structure produced with first grounding electrode 6, second grounding electrode 7 and the 3rd grounding electrode 8.More particularly, the fundamental resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 results from about 26.46GHz place.
Fig. 4 is illustrated in the S parameter frequency characteristic when only removing resonator electrode 3 from the bimodule band-pass filter 1 according to first preferred embodiment.That is, the structure of Fig. 4 is equal to the structure with transmission characteristic shown in Figure 3, except being provided with first through hole electrode 9.
Shown in the arrow A a among Fig. 4, first through hole electrode 9 fundamental resonance that generation causes by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 is set so that produce at the frequency place of about 31.32GHz.
Relatively illustrating between Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, the setting of first through hole electrode 9 make the frequency of the fundamental resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 increase about 5GHz.
Therefore, first through hole electrode 9 moves the frequency of the fundamental resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 and the frequency of higher mode resonance to upper frequency.
Fig. 5 illustrates the S parameter frequency characteristic of Figure 1A to the structure shown in the 1C.With reference to figure 5, the resonant mode about about 25.5GHz frequency is represented the resonant mode by resonator electrode 3 generations.Resonant mode is coupled to each other by the formation of aperture 3a, thereby realizes pass band filter characteristic.On the contrary, the resonance that first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 causes results from the frequency place of about 30.73GHz, shown in arrow A b.Therefore, as shown in Figure 5, be used to provide the resonance frequency of the resonator electrode 3 of pass band filter characteristic to be different from the resonance frequency of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8.
For relatively, measured the transmission characteristic of known bimodule band-pass filter 121 shown in Figure 6.Bimodule band-pass filter 121 have with Figure 1A to the identical structure of the bimodule band-pass filter 1 of 1C, except having removed first through hole electrode 9.
Fig. 7 illustrates the S parameter frequency characteristic of bimodule band-pass filter 121.With reference to figure 7, in known bimodule band-pass filter 121, the resonance that is caused by resonator electrode 3 results from about the frequency of about 27.7GHz.The resonance that grounding electrode causes results from about 25.58GHz place and about 32.49GHz place, shown in arrow A c and Ad.That is, the resonance of fundamental resonance that is caused by grounding electrode and higher mode results from the both sides of passband of bimodule band-pass filter 121.
Relatively illustrating between Fig. 5 and Fig. 7, in bimodule band-pass filter 1 according to first preferred embodiment, the effect that first through hole electrode 9 has been eliminated the unwanted false signal that the resonance by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 causes realizes good transmission characteristic thus.
Configuration through hole electrode 9 so that the resonance that causes by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 that is arranged to around resonator electrode result from outside the passband of bimodule band-pass filter, as mentioned above.The effect as the unwanted false signal that is caused by the resonance of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 in first preferred embodiment has been eliminated in this formation, has realized good transmission characteristic thus.
Owing to first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 is set with around resonator electrode 3 in the bimodule band-pass filter 1 according to first preferred embodiment, thereby suppressed from the radiation of resonator electrode 3 and the insertion loss of the filter that suppressed to be caused by radiation loss increases and stops bimodule band-pass filter to become noise source.Also suppressed when other electronic section, shell or other parts be provided with the moving of the filter characteristic that produces when the bimodule band-pass filter 1.
Below will describe by the reason that first through hole electrode 9 moves the false signal that the resonance by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 causes is set.
Fig. 8 A is a plane graph and Fig. 8 B is a cross sectional front elevation, the Electric Field Distribution at the fundamental resonance frequency place of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 in the schematically illustrated known bimodule band-pass filter, the Electric Field Distribution at promptly about 26.46GHz place.In this Electric Field Distribution, electric field is strengthened with the density of black-tape.Shown in Fig. 8 A and 8B, highfield results from the mid portion on the first type surface of dielectric substrate.
On the contrary, Fig. 9 A plane graph and Fig. 9 B is a cross sectional front elevation, schematically illustrated Electric Field Distribution according to the fundamental resonance frequency place of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 in the bimodule band-pass filter 1 of first preferred embodiment with first through hole electrode 9, the Electric Field Distribution at promptly about 31.32GHz place.Shown in Fig. 9 A and 9B, first through hole electrode 9 of the pars intermedia office of the first type surface of dielectric substrate 2 has been eliminated the highfield among Fig. 8.
In other words, because first through hole electrode 9 is shorted to first grounding electrode 6 and second grounding electrode 7, therefore do not produce electric field on every side and wherein in the zone that first through hole electrode 9 is set.Therefore, according to first preferred embodiment, first through hole electrode 9 stops the strong resonance of the pars intermedia office of dielectric substrates 2 to produce, or stops the periphery of first through hole electrode 9 to help the resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8.As a result, thus the structure that forms waveguide has reduced the frequency that size increases the fundamental resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8.
Figure 10 A is the bottom view of the bimodule band-pass filter 21 of second preferred embodiment according to the present invention.Figure 10 B is the cross-sectional side view of the bimodule band-pass filter 21 that X2-X2 along the line obtains among Figure 10 A.
To dispose the bimodule band-pass filter 21 of second preferred embodiment, except second through hole electrode 22 to 25 is set with the same mode of the bimodule band-pass filter 1 of first preferred embodiment.In the plane graph of bimodule band-pass filter 21, a plurality of second through hole electrodes 22 to 25 are arranged on outside the zone that resonator electrode 3 is set.Second through hole electrode 22 to 25 is electrically connected to first grounding electrode 6 and second grounding electrode 7, and is the same with first through hole electrode 9.
In bimodule band-pass filter 21, the unwanted false signal that second through hole electrode 22 to 25 will be caused by the resonance of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 moves to reduce the effect of false signal to upper frequency.This will described below with reference to Figure 11 to 13.
Figure 11 illustrates the S parameter frequency characteristic of bimodule band-pass filter 21.Among Fig. 5, the fundamental resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 results from about 30.73GHz place, transmission characteristic according to the bimodule band-pass filter 1 of first preferred embodiment is shown, simultaneously in Figure 11, the fundamental resonance that is caused by first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 results from the upper frequency place of about 33.56GHz.With reference to Figure 11, the resonance that is caused by resonator electrode 3 results from around the 25.5GHz.
In the bimodule band-pass filter 21 according to second preferred embodiment, the unwanted false signal that the interpolation of second through hole electrode 22 to 25 will be caused by the resonance of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 is to the effect of higher frequency shifts with further reduction false signal.This is because second through hole electrode 22 to 25 produces the zone that does not help second through hole electrode 22 to 25 resonance on every side, thereby compare the size that reduces the structure that forms waveguide with the bimodule band-pass filter 1 of first preferred embodiment, and increased the resonance frequency of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8.
Adopt bimodule band-pass filter 21, can reduce by making the frequency change that mistake causes.Suppose owing to make the width W of mistake bimodule band-pass filter to be reduced to W1, shown in the figure on Figure 12 right side.
Figure 13 illustrates when removing resonator electrode 3 and the S parameter frequency characteristic of bimodule band-pass filter 1 when reducing width as mentioned above.Figure 14 illustrates when removing resonator electrode 3 and the S parameter frequency characteristic of bimodule band-pass filter 21 when reducing width as mentioned above.
Relatively illustrating between Figure 13 and Figure 14, when because the manufacturing mistake of bimodule band-pass filter 1 when causing that width reduces, the fundamental resonance frequency of the false signal that is caused by the resonance of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 moves to about 32.87GHz from about 31.32GHz.
Relatively illustrating between Figure 11 and Figure 14, when the width of the bimodule band-pass filter 21 of second preferred embodiment reduced, the fundamental resonance frequency of the false signal that is caused by the resonance of first to the 3rd grounding electrode 6 to 8 moved to about 33.98GHz from about 33.56GHz.
In bimodule band-pass filter 21, with the mobile phase ratio of bimodule band-pass filter 1, the resonance frequency of false signal moves when having reduced the chip size variation.In other words, in bimodule band-pass filter 21, reduced and made the chip size that mistake causes and change the frequency change of the false signal that causes, thereby reduced the variation in the transmission characteristic.
As mentioned above, below will be described in the reason of the frequency change that has reduced the false signal that causes by the chip size variation in the bimodule band-pass filter 21.
In bimodule band-pass filter 1, the gap size in the middle of change width changes between two vertical sides of first through hole electrode 9 and bimodule band-pass filter 1.Because the resonance in transverse electric (TE) pattern depends on gap size, so frequency changes with the variation of the size of space.
On the contrary, in bimodule band-pass filter 21, because by second through hole electrode, 22 to 25 fixed intervals around resonator electrode and middle first through hole electrode 9, so any variation of circuit wafer width can not cause the variation of gap size.Therefore, in bimodule band-pass filter 21, suppressed by making the false signal variation that mistake causes.
Figure 15 illustrates the bimodule band-pass filter 26 of modification.As shown in figure 15, first grounding electrode 6 and second grounding electrode 7 are arranged in the dielectric substrate 2.
Though as the above-mentioned aperture that is disclosed in open is coupled with the pass band filter characteristic of the bimodule band-pass filter 21 of the bimodule band-pass filter 1 that first preferred embodiment is provided and second preferred embodiment a plurality of nondegenerate resonant modes, the present invention does not need this band pass filter.For example, the present invention can also be applied to the known bimodule band-pass filter among Figure 16, has toroidal cavity resonator electrode 31.Adopt known bimodule band-pass filter, control Coupling point 32 and 33 provides pass band filter characteristic to toroidal cavity resonator electrode 31.Feedback circuit 34 is set controls the degree that is coupled in the known bimodule band-pass filter of Figure 16.
As mentioned above, the present invention can be used for various band pass filters, uses the resonator electrode with different shape, as long as this resonator electrode has corresponding aperture.
The invention is not restricted to above-mentioned preferred embodiment, but can make amendment within the scope of the appended claims.In addition, the technology that is disclosed in the above-mentioned preferred embodiment can be used in combination on demand.
