Definitions

  • the invention relates to a high-frequency filter in coaxial design, in particular in the manner of a high-frequency filter (such as duplexer) or a band-pass filter or band-stop filter.
  • the invention further relates to a method for tuning and / or producing a high-frequency filter.
  • a common antenna is often used for transmit and receive signals.
  • the transmit and receive signals each use different frequency ranges, and the antenna must be suitable for transmitting and receiving in both frequency ranges.
  • a suitable frequency filtering is required, with the one hand, the transmission signals from the transmitter to the antenna and on the other hand, the received signals are forwarded from the antenna to the receiver.
  • inter alia high-frequency filters in coaxial design are used today.
  • a pair of high frequency filters may be used, both of which pass a particular frequency band (bandpass filter).
  • a pair of high frequency filters may be used, both of which block a particular frequency band (bandstop filter).
  • a pair of high frequency filters may be used, one of which passes frequencies below a frequency between transmit and receive bands and blocks frequencies above that frequency (low pass filter), and the other filter blocks frequencies below a frequency between transmit and receive bands and overlying frequencies lets through (high-pass filter).
  • High frequency filters are often manufactured in the form of coaxial TEM resonators. These resonators can be inexpensively and economically manufactured from milling or castings and they ensure a high electrical quality and a relatively high temperature stability.
  • High-frequency filters which comprise an outer conductor housing in which a plurality of coaxial cavities are formed, in each of which an inner conductor is arranged in the form of an inner conductor tube. In this way, a multiplicity of resonators arranged next to one another is formed, wherein adjacent resonators are electrically coupled to one another via coupling openings.
  • the outer conductor housing such high-frequency filter is nowadays usually produced by casting or milling, wherein by appropriate choice or size and shape of the coupling openings and the distance between adjacent resonators, the desired response of the filter can be generated. Since tolerances can occur during the production of such high-frequency filters, it is generally necessary to rework the outer conductor housing mechanically. The reworking is usually done by the milling of the coupling openings. It proves to be disadvantageous that when reworking the filter, the coupling openings can only be increased, which leads to an increase in the electrical coupling between adjacent resonators. In particular, it is no longer possible to reduce the size of a milled opening that is too large in order to reduce the electrical coupling.
  • the coupling openings were initially always designed to be too small, and by successive re-milling the electrical coupling was set to the desired level.
  • the production and tuning of the filter was thus very complex and time-consuming. In particular, it had to be ensured that the coupling opening is not milled too large, because this error was not correctable and the corresponding outer conductor housing had to be discarded.
  • a filter using coaxial resonators for example, from the US 4,307,357 known.
  • the individual coaxial resonators connecting wall openings in the housing do not have to reach down to the floor level of a single Koaxialresonators, but that here the floor surface may be at a different level, for example, in this area is higher than the usual floor level and thus a kind Podium, threshold, step etc. formed is.
  • a coaxial comb-line filter which comprises a housing with a cavity in which rods are arranged. Each rod is integrally formed with one end to the housing. The other end of the rod extends into the cavity and ends in a certain relative position to the lid.
  • a coaxial filter for very short electromagnetic waves is also from the DE 21 61 792 B2 known.
  • a high-frequency filter which comprises the outer conductor housing having a housing bottom and a housing wall in which, for example, two resonators are formed.
  • Each resonator comprises an inner conductor electrically coupled to the housing bottom.
  • a breakthrough is provided in an intermediate wall separating the two resonators, which aperture is penetrated by a rod which is held at its opposite ends by dielectric sleeves which are penetrated by the respective inner conductor of the two resonators.
  • the aforementioned rod can be referred to as a coupling rod, since a coupling between the two resonators is adjustable by a height adjustment of these two inner conductor connecting rods.
  • the coupling rod is changed in height, by actuation of a coupling rod centrally passing, parallel to the inner conductors extending non-metallic screw, which with its frontal axis for a in a corresponding Recess in the housing base and with its opposite protruding axle portion in a corresponding, the two resonators separating housing intermediate wall engages above the coupling opening and is held.
  • the coupling rod is not held changeable in its height adjustment (according to FIG US Pat. No. 3,516,030 ), it is dispensed with the adjustment of the threaded rod and the corresponding holes for holding the threaded rod.
  • a resonator arrangement with an integrated helix arrangement is also known from US Pat US 4,342,969 A known.
  • the resonant filter comprises a helical winding, an opening is provided in the housing bottom for this purpose so that the lower end of the helical winding structure can be electrically connected through the opening to a printed circuit located below the housing.
  • Above the helix structures are then provided in the housing cover screws that serve the resonance filter setting.

At least one part of adjacent resonators is electrically coupled to one another via one or more coupling openings in the outer conductor housing, wherein the electrical coupling between adjacent resonators is influenced not only by the size and / or the shape of the coupling openings, but also by one or more depressions. These recesses are formed between at least part of the inner conductor tubes (i.e., approximately on a connecting line between the inner conductor tubes) of adjacent resonators in the case bottom.
  • the invention is based on the finding that such depressions lead to a weakening of the electrical coupling between adjacent resonators.
  • the degree of coupling is determined by the lateral extent and the depth of the recesses.
  • the high-frequency filter according to the invention can thus be tuned and produced with little processing effort.
  • the tuning of the filter can in particular also be iterative, i. the coupling between adjacent resonators can be tuned alternately by increasing the coupling openings and attaching depressions until the desired frequency response has been achieved.
  • the filter according to the invention is also much cheaper because less waste is produced during its production. In addition, the development time for the filter is reduced and a cheaper casting tool for the outer conductor housing can be used.
  • a particularly effective attenuation of the coupling is achieved in a preferred embodiment of the filter according to the invention in that one or more of the recesses lie in a plan view of the housing bottom adjacent to a coupling opening and / or at least partially within a coupling opening between adjacent resonators.

  • the filter is particular configured such that it operates in the mobile radio frequency range, in particular in the GSM and / or UMTS mobile radio frequency range.
  • the invention further relates to a method for tuning the high-frequency electrical characteristics of a high-frequency filter, in particular the electrical coupling of the resonators of a high-frequency filter, wherein for weakening the electrical coupling of adjacent resonators, between at least a portion of the inner conductor tubes of adjacent resonators several recesses are formed in the housing bottom.
  • a tuning possibility of the filter for weakening the electrical coupling is made possible in a particularly simple manner.
  • the recesses are drilled and / or milled into the housing bottom.
  • the tuning method preferably comprises, as a further method step, the enlargement of one or more of the coupling openings in the outer conductor housing, in particular the milling of the coupling openings, whereby the electrical coupling between adjacent resonators is amplified.
  • the desired frequency response can be iteratively set, wherein the electrical coupling is increased on the one hand by increasing the coupling openings and on the other hand lowered by the formation of corresponding recesses in the housing bottom.
  • the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a high-frequency filter, wherein the filter is tuned at the end of the method by means of the tuning method just described.
  • the production of the filter is very simplified. Especially Less rejects are produced because too much electrical coupling, which is caused by a too large milled coupling opening, can be compensated by corresponding recesses in the housing bottom.
  • FIG. 1 shows a plan view from above of a high-frequency filter in the form of a four-circuit microwave filter.
  • the filter comprises an electrically conductive outer conductor housing 1, which is preferably a milling or casting.
