Definitions
- the present invention relates to microwave filters comprising resonators arranged in line between the input and the output of the filter and in which two nonadjacent resonators are coupled by a conductive plate of elongated shape, having its two ends situated, respectively, at the vicinity of these two nonadjacent resonators and having a curvature whose concavity is turned towards the resonators situated between the two nonadjacent resonators.
- Such filters are known for example from German patent application 2218277.
- the position of the conductive plate is determined during the production of the filter and can only be modified subsequently by opening the filter housing and by changing the thickness of insulating parts which determine the position of the conductive plate in relation to the resonators.
- the present invention aims to provide a filter where the adjustment of the position of the metal plate does not require the opening of the housing. This is mainly achieved by using an elastic conductive plate and an insulating screw which passes through the filter housing and comes to bear on the plate.
- a microwave filter comprising n resonators (n integer at least equal to 3) arranged in line between the input and the output of the filter and in which at least two non-adjacent resonators, which will be said to be separate coupled resonators , are coupled by an elongated conductive plate, having its two ends located, respectively, in the vicinity of two separate-coupled resonators and having a curvature whose concavity is turned towards those of the n-2 other resonators located between the two separate resonators -coupled, is characterized in that the plate is an elastic plate with a fixed point and one end of which is free and in that an insulating adjustment screw passing through the wall of the filter housing allows adjustment the position of the free end of the plate relative to one of the separate-coupled resonators by pressing on the plate.
- the filter according to FIG. 1 comprises a metal cavity, 1, in which are placed four resonators, R, to R 4 , formed of line sections.
- This filter is of the comb filter type due to the arrangement of its resonators.
- the cavity 1 is a metal case comprising a bottom 2 secured to four vertical walls, and a cover 5; the resonators are tubular and are parallel to each other.
- the number of resonators makes it possible to determine the number of poles of the amplitude / frequency transfer function.
- This filter additionally includes a ZE input impedance adapter and a ZS output impedance adapter.
- Each resonator is fixed by a first end to a vertical side, 3, of the housing, and is coupled, at its second end, to the opposite vertical side, 4, by a capacitive coupling, C, to C 4 .
- the capacitive couplings are produced by conductive threaded rods which each partially penetrate inside each resonator without touching them on the side where the potential is not zero, that is to say by the end opposite to the side 3 of the housing. .
- Each rod is accessible from outside the housing and can be screwed or unscrewed to obtain the tuning frequency of each resonator. The rods therefore make it possible to vary the corresponding tuning capacity.
- the filter input E is taken on the vertical side 3.
- the input impedance adapter ZE is a section of conductive line placed upstream of the first resonator, R l . This adapter ZE is connected to the input E by one of its ends and is connected to the ground by the other end.
- the output S of the filter is taken on the vertical side 3.
- the adapter ZS is a section of conductive line placed downstream of the resonator R 4 . This adapter ZS is connected to the output S by one of its ends and is connected to the ground by the other end.
- the filtering frequency range of such a filter can range from 500 MHz to a few GHz.
- the central frequency Fc was of the order of 825 MHz and the bandwidth AF of the order of 10% of the central frequency.
- an amplitude / frequency response according to Tchebycheff was chosen which therefore have a minimum of ripple in the passband.
- the resonators have primary couplings between them. These primary couplings between adjacent resonators are generally capacitive and a function of the distance separating the two adjacent resonators. This distance was chosen so as to obtain the desired filtering function.
- the filter of FIGS. 1 and 2 also includes a conductive plate 6 which is used to create a secondary coupling between the two non-adjacent resonators R, and R 4 .
- the plate 6 is an elongated plate having a certain elasticity. As shown in Figures 1 and 2 this plate is integral with the resonator R l . This plate is placed at a distance D from the resonators R 2 R 3 sufficient for there to be practically no coupling with these resonators.
- the ends 7 and 8 of the plate 6 are curved and have flat folds 9 and 10 opposite the resonators R and R 4 respectively .
- One of the ends, 7, of the plate is made integral with the resonator R I by a weld, 20, between the flat fold 10 and this resonator.
- the plate 6 is therefore electrically connected to the resonator R l .
- the other end 8 of the plate 9 has its flat-fold located at a distance au4commun of the resonator R. ; the distance d is much less than the distance D.
- the cover 5 is pierced with a threaded hole, 19a, which is located above the resonator R4 when the cover 5 is closed.
- the threaded hole 19a passes through the cover 5 and allows the passage of an insulating screw 19.
- the head of the screw 19 is located outside the filter, its body is screwed into the hole 19a and its end is in contact with the flat fold 9 of the plate. This contact is guided by means of a pivot 8a fixed to the flat fold 9, perpendicular to this flat fold and penetrating inside the screw 19 in a housing produced for this purpose.
- the screw 19 therefore makes it possible, by screwing or unscrewing and thanks to the elasticity of the plate 6, to bring the flat fold 9 closer to or away from the plate 6 of the resonator R 4 and this in order to vary the secondary coupling produced between the resonator R I and the resonator R 4 ; it is thus possible to move the infinite weakening point, obtained by the secondary coupling, in a frequency band comprised between the cut-off frequency of the filter delimiting the useful band and a frequency greater than this cut-off frequency.
- the present invention is not limited to the example described, this is how it is possible to produce, in the same filter, several secondary couplings between nonadjacent resonators in order to obtain several peaks of infinite attenuation and therefore to provide several adjustments by elastic plate and insulating screw.
- the present invention applies to all microwave filters comprising more than two resonators arranged in a line, these resonators can be just as much line sections as dielectric resonators.
