Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne les filtres passe-bande du type à cavités et à structure en peigne qui sont, en particulier, utilisés comme filtres d'entrée de récepteurs en radiofréquences; elle concerne également les radiorécepteurs, et tout particulièrement les radioaltimètres, équipés de tels filtres.The present invention relates to band pass filters of the cavity type and with comb structure which are, in particular, used as input filters for radio frequency receivers; it also relates to radio receivers, and more particularly radio altimeters, equipped with such filters.
Il existe dans le commerce des radioaltimètres équipés de filtres passe-bande, à cavités, à structure en peigne dite structure "comb-line" dans la littérature anglo-saxonne. Les filtres utilisés n'entraînent qu'une faible perte d'insertion et n'ont pas de bandes passantes parasites autour de la bande passante. Par contre les flancs de la bande passante sont ceux d'un filtre de TCHEBYSCHEFF, c'est-à-dire qu'ils sont peu raides, ce qui est gênant dans certaines utilisations, surtout pour le flanc qui limite les fréquences hautes de la bande passante.There are commercially available radio altimeters equipped with band pass filters, with cavities, with comb structure called "comb-line" structure in Anglo-Saxon literature. The filters used only cause a small insertion loss and have no parasitic bandwidths around the bandwidth. On the other hand, the flanks of the passband are those of a TCHEBYSCHEFF filter, that is to say that they are not very stiff, which is troublesome in certain uses, especially for the flank which limits the high frequencies of the bandwidth.
Le but de l'invention est d'éviter ou, pour le moins, de réduire cet inconvénient sans, pour cela, ajouter un filtre coupe-bande en série avec le filtre passe-bande considéré.The object of the invention is to avoid or, at the very least, to reduce this drawback without, for this, adding a notch filter in series with the band pass filter considered.

Le barreau Be, les vis V1, V2, V3 et le barreau Bs sont alignés dans cet ordre.Two metal bars, Be, Bs, are integral with the bottom of the hollow part and are arranged perpendicular to this bottom; three adjustment screws, metallic V1, V2, V3, the heads of which are external to the housing, pass right through and perpendicular to the bottom of the hollow part in order to be able to sink more or less deeply inside the housing . The Be bar, the screws V1, V2, V3 and the bar Bs are aligned in this order.
Deux prises d'accès métalliques Pe, Ps ainsi que trois barreaux métalliques B1, B2, B3 sont solidaires du couvercle 2. Les prises sont disposées dans le prolongement de trous percés dans le couvercle et les trois barreaux B1, B2, B3, qui constituent les trois dents du peigne, sont montés perpendiculairement au couvercle. Des câbles coaxiaux Le, Ls dont seules les extrémités ont été représentées, pénètrent respectivement dans les prises d'accès Pe, Ps, avec leur conducteur interne qui est isolé du couvercle par un isolant et qui ressort du couvercle du côtés opposé à la prise; le conducteur externe de ces câbles est en contact avec la paroi interne de la prise. Sur la figure 2 les conducteurs internes des câbles Le, Ls, ainsi que les barreaux B1, B2, B3 ont été dessinés en traits discontinus, dans la position qu'ils occupent, à l'intérieur du boîtier, quand le couvercle 1 est placé sur la partie en creux 2, comme représenté sur la figure 1. Les câbles Le, Ls constituent les conducteurs d'entrée et de sortie du filtre selon les figures 1 et 2.Two metal access points Pe, Ps as well as three metal bars B1, B2, B3 are integral with the
Les barreaux B1, B2, B3 constituent des résonateurs et les vis V1, V2, V3, disposées respectivement en regard des barreaux B1, B2, B3, constituent les éléments de réglage des fréquences de résonance de ces résonateurs. Un filtre comme celui des figures 1 et 2, est considéré comme étant un filtre à trois cavités où les cavités sont les espaces au voisinage de chacun des barreaux B1, B2, B3.The bars B1, B2, B3 constitute resonators and the screws V1, V2, V3, disposed respectively opposite the bars B1, B2, B3, constitute the elements for adjusting the resonance frequencies of these resonators. A filter like that of FIGS. 1 and 2 is considered to be a filter with three cavities where the cavities are the spaces in the vicinity of each of the bars B1, B2, B3.
Dans l'exemple de réalisation qui est décrit ici, le boîtier 1 et le couvercle 2 ainsi que les barreaux Be, B1, B2, B3 sont en alliage léger, chromaté sur toutes les parois internes au guide d'ondes que constituent le boîtier et le couvercle; quant aux vis de réglage V1, V2, V3, elles sont en bronze au béryllium.In the embodiment which is described here, the

Il s'agit d'un filtre passe-bande dont la réponse en amplitude, A, par rapport à la fréquence, F, représentée par la courbe Ch selon la figure 5, est sensiblement centrée sur 4,3 GHz. La courbe Ch est une courbe classique d'un filtre de Tchebychev, généralement othographié Chebyshev ou Chebishev dans la littérature anglo-saxonne. Ce genre de filtre a une faible perte d'insertion et n'a pas de bandes passantes parasites dans la bande coupée ; par contre la pente de la transition entre la bande passante et la bande coupée est assez faible, en particulier comparée à celle des filtres de Cauer ; mais il n'est pas connu de réaliser ces derniers filtres en structure mécanique c'est-à-dire sous la forme de filtres à cavités, en peigne ; toutefois il est possible de réaliser les filtres de Cauer en d'autres technologies, par exemple en microrubans (microstrip dans la littérature anglo-saxonne), l'inconvénient est que, dans de telles réalisations, des bandes passantes parasites apparaissent dans la bande coupée.It is a bandpass filter whose amplitude response, A, with respect to the frequency, F, represented by the curve Ch according to FIG. 5, is substantially centered on 4.3 GHz. The curve Ch is a classic curve of a Chebyshev filter, generally spelled Chebyshev or Chebishev in Anglo-Saxon literature. This kind of filter has a low insertion loss and has no parasitic bandwidths in the cut band; on the other hand, the slope of the transition between the pass band and the cut band is fairly low, in particular compared to that of the Cauer filters; but it is not known to produce these latter filters in mechanical structure, that is to say in the form of cavity filters, in comb; however it is possible to make Cauer's filters in other technologies, for example in microstrips (microstrip in the literature Anglo-Saxon), the drawback is that, in such embodiments, parasitic bandwidths appear in the cut band.
Les figures 3 et 4 représentent un filtre passe-bande obtenu en adjoignant au filtre selon les figures 1 et 2, quatre résonateurs réjecteurs, R1e, R2e, R1s, R2s qui, dans l'exemple décrit, sont réalisés en bronze au béryllium. Il s'agit en fait, sur ces figures, de montrer dans quelles positions peuvent être placés des résonateurs réjecteurs pour améliorer la réponse du filtre; dans l'exemple décrit l'amélioration recherchée n'a nécessité que la mise en oeuvre des résonateurs R2e et R2s ; dans d'autres applications il pourra s'avérer qu'un seul résonateur réjecteur suffise ou bien qu'il faille utiliser trois d'entre eux, voire tous les quatre.Figures 3 and 4 show a bandpass filter obtained by adding to the filter according to Figures 1 and 2, four rejection resonators, R1e, R2e, R1s, R2s which, in the example described, are made of beryllium bronze. It is in fact a question, in these figures, of showing in which positions can be placed rejection resonators to improve the response of the filter; in the example described the improvement sought only required the implementation of the resonators R2e and R2s; in other applications it may prove that a single rejector resonator is sufficient or that it is necessary to use three of them, or even all four.
Ces quatre résonateurs sont disposés au voisinage de l'entrée et de la sortie du filtre : R1e entre le barreau d'entrée Be et l'extrémité du guide d'ondes voisine de ce barreau, R2e entre le barreau d'entrée Be et le résonateur B1-V1, R2s entre le résonateur B3-V3 et le barreau de sortie Bs et R1s entre le barreau de sortie Bs et l'extrémité du guide d'ondes voisine du barreau Bs.These four resonators are arranged in the vicinity of the input and the output of the filter: R1e between the input bar Be and the end of the waveguide near this bar, R2e between the input bar Be and the resonator B1-V1, R2s between the resonator B3-V3 and the output bar Bs and R1s between the output bar Bs and the end of the waveguide near the bar Bs.
Les quatre résonateurs réjecteurs sont montés perpendiculairement à celles des parois internes du boîtier dont le plan est parallèle à celui de la figure 1, c'est-à-dire qu'ils sont montés perpendiculairement aux résonateurs du filtre.The four rejector resonators are mounted perpendicular to those of the internal walls of the housing, the plane of which is parallel to that of FIG. 1, that is to say that they are mounted perpendicular to the filter resonators.
L'intérêt de ce choix des positions des résonateurs réjecteurs, au voisinage des accès du filtre, perpendiculairement aux résonateurs proprement dits du filtre, est qu'ainsi les résonateurs réjecteurs jouent bien leur rôle de réjecteurs, c'est-à-dire prélèvent de l'énergie à leur fréquence d'accord, tout en ne perturbant pas beaucoup la bande passante du filtre, comme il ressort de la figure 5.The advantage of this choice of the positions of the rejector resonators, in the vicinity of the access points of the filter, perpendicular to the resonators proper of the filter, is that thus the rejector resonators play their role of rejectors well, that is to say take from energy at their tuning frequency, while not greatly disturbing the pass band of the filter, as shown in FIG. 5.
Sur la figure 5 ont été dessinées, outre la courbe Ch représentative de la réponse amplitude/fréquence du filtre selon les figures 1 et 2, une courbe Ci représentative de la réponse amplitude/fréquence du filtre ayant servi à la description, c'est-à-dire, comme il a été dit plus avant, d'un filtre correspondant à celui des figures 3, 4 mais sans les résonateurs réjecteurs R1e, R1s.In FIG. 5 have been drawn, in addition to the curve Ch representative of the amplitude / frequency response of the filter according to FIGS. 1 and 2, a curve Ci representative of the amplitude / frequency response of the filter used for the description, that is to say that is to say, as has been said above, of a filter corresponding to that of FIGS. 3, 4 but without the rejection resonators R1e, R1s.
La comparaison des courbes Ci et Ch montre que l'introduction de résonateurs réjecteurs R2e, R2s dans le filtre selon les figures 1 et 2, permet d'améliorer d'environ 30 décibels le filtrage dans la partie haute de la bande passante du filtre ; la bande passante selon la courbe Ci est centrée sur Fo = 4,3GHz et, par rapport à celle selon la courbe Ch, elle est légèrement réduite en haut de bande et très légèrement plus étendue en bas de bande.The comparison of the curves Ci and Ch shows that the introduction of rejection resonators R2e, R2s in the filter according to FIGS. 1 and 2, improves filtering by around 30 decibels in the upper part of the filter bandwidth; the bandwidth according to the curve Ci is centered on Fo = 4.3 GHz and, compared to that according to the curve Ch, it is slightly reduced at the top of the band and very slightly more extended at the bottom of the band.
Dans l'exemple décrit les résonateurs réjecteurs R2e, R2s sont respectivement accordés sur des fréquences de résonance d'environ 4,5 et 4,6 GHz ce qui explique les creux de la courbe Ci à ces fréquences, creux qui sont dus à l'énergie prélevée par ces résonateurs à leur fréquence d'accord. Il est à noter que les deux résonateurs réjecteurs sont réglés sur des fréquences d'accord supérieures aux fréquences de la bande passante du filtre, c'est qu'en fait ils ne fonctionnent correctement que dans ces conditions. Pour des fréquences d'accord inférieures à la bande passante du filtre il apparaît une bande passante parasite importante dans la courbe de réponse ce qui n'est, en général, pas souhaitable.In the example described, the rejection resonators R2e, R2s are respectively tuned to resonance frequencies of approximately 4.5 and 4.6 GHz, which explains the dips in the curve Ci at these frequencies, dips which are due to the energy taken by these resonators at their tuning frequency. It should be noted that the two rejector resonators are set to tuning frequencies higher than the frequencies of the passband of the filter, that is to say that in fact they function correctly only under these conditions. For tuning frequencies lower than the passband of the filter, a large parasitic passband appears in the response curve, which is generally not desirable.
La présente invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple décrit. Ainsi la structure en peigne peut comporter un nombre de dents différent de trois. Les barreaux tels que Be, Bs et les dents du peigne, au lieu d'être perpendiculaires aux plus larges des parois internes longitudinales du guide d'ondes, peuvent être perpendiculaires aux plus étroites de ces parois; dans ce cas les résonateurs réjecteurs, pour leur rester orthogonaux, seront montés perpendiculairement aux plus larges des parois internes longitudinales du guide d'ondes.The present invention is not limited to the example described. Thus the comb structure may have a number of teeth other than three. The bars such as Be, Bs and the teeth of the comb, instead of being perpendicular to the widest of the longitudinal internal walls of the waveguide, can be perpendicular to the narrowest of these walls; in this case the rejector resonators, to remain orthogonal to them, will be mounted perpendicular to the widest of the longitudinal internal walls of the waveguide.
