Definitions

  • the invention relates to a high-frequency filter, i.e. a so-called high-pass filter, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a pair of high-frequency filters can be used, both of which allow a specific (i.e. the respectively desired) frequency band to pass through (bandpass filter) or a pair of high-frequency filters which both block a certain (i.e. the respectively undesired) frequency band (band-stop filter), or a Pair of high-frequency filters, made up of a filter that passes frequencies below a frequency between the transmission and reception bands and blocks the frequencies above (low-pass filters), and a filter that blocks frequencies below this frequency between the transmission and reception bands and the above it lets through (high-pass filter).
  • Other combinations of the filter types mentioned can also be used.
  • High-frequency filters of the type described can be constructed in different ways.
  • a known high-pass filter can consist of a bore or a channel in a milled or cast housing, with inner conductor sections being arranged in the channel or in the bore, which are galvanically connected to the outer conductor via so-called stub lines.
  • the inner conductor sections (if the entire arrangement should still have a compact structural size) generally have very small-dimensioned interruptions, as a result of which the corresponding inner conductor sections are capacitively coupled at their end faces.
  • the size of the capacitive couplings between the line sections is inversely proportional to Change the distance.
  • the frontal capacitive coupling between the inner conductors also increases with an increasing cross-sectional area of the lines and with an increasing dielectric constant of the material that can be located in the gap between the lines. Since the coaxial high-pass filters known and designed according to the state of the art generally require relatively high capacities, the distance between the end faces of the inner conductor sections positioned in an axial extension of one another is (if, as mentioned, comparatively compact outer dimensions are to be maintained ) usually smaller than 0.5 mm (for example when installing in a base station or other antenna device). The distance is often around 0.1 to 0.2 mm.
  • Figure 12a is in a schematic axial longitudinal section (for example, in a plan view without showing the cover closing the outer conductor) and in Figure 12b a corresponding coaxial high-pass filter, as is known from the prior art, is shown in an axial cross-sectional view (with a cover closing the outer conductor).
  • the housing can also be divided into two or more parts, for example it can comprise two housing sections or housing halves that can be joined together.
  • the outer conductor housing can also be completely closed, so that the inner conductor arrangement is only pushed axially into this outer conductor housing. There are no restrictions in this regard.
  • such a coaxial high-pass filter comprises an outer conductor 1 which - as mentioned - usually consists of a milled or cast housing (metal, metal alloy) in which an axial bore or an axial channel 3 is formed.
  • An inner conductor arrangement 5 is then provided along this bore or this channel 3, which consists of several inner conductor sections 5a.
  • the inner conductor sections end with their inner conductor end face 5b at a small distance A, so that a capacitive coupling results between the inner conductor end faces 5b and thus the inner conductor sections 5a.
  • a dielectric D can be inserted between these inner conductor end faces 5b, for example.
  • the individual inner conductor sections 5a are each galvanically coupled (as a rule in the middle) to the outer conductor 1 via a branch line 7 running transversely or perpendicularly to the associated inner conductor section 5a, the corresponding branch lines 7 in lateral branch line ducts 9 (i.e. branch line recesses 9). run in the material of the outer conductor 1 and are galvanically connected to the aforementioned outer conductor 1 on the branch line channel bottom 9a (the outer conductor 1 quasi represents the housing of the high-pass filter formed in this way).
  • Such a high pass in a coaxial structure is, for example, through Matthei, Young, Jones: “Microwave Filters, Impedance-Matching Networks, and Coupling Structures", McGraw - Hill Book Company 2001 , namely on page 414 ( Figure 7 .07-3) as known.
  • FIG. 12c Based on Figure 12c is a corresponding equivalent circuit diagram for the prior art according to the Figures 12a and 12b known high frequency filter reproduced. It can be seen from this that a single inner conductor 5 with individual inner conductor sections 5a is provided, with a capacitance C 1 being formed between two inner conductor sections 5a and running from the inner conductor sections 5a, which are continuous to ground, or the outer conductor 1 Branch line 7 is connected in the form of an inductance I.
  • the desired response behavior of the high-pass filter formed in this way is generated by the paired capacitive coupling of several line sections or line pieces (whereby the coupling can take place via a dielectric consisting of air or some other material) and their galvanic connection with the outer conductor.
  • the degree of capacitive coupling is determined by the size of the opposite two end faces of the inner conductor sections coupled above, by the distance A between the two end inner conductor sections and by the dielectric used between the two end inner conductor sections.
  • FIG. 12a and 12b comparable solution is also from the US 2009/0153270 A1 became known that the DE 10 2007 061 413 A1 corresponds to.
  • a high-pass filter is shown with an inner conductor which comprises individual inner conductor sections. Two inner conductor sections following one another in an axial extension are at a distance from one another arranged, the mutually facing end faces as well as an adjoining inner conductor section dipping in a partial length into a tubular intermediate piece which has a closed wall section in the middle between the two end faces of the successive inner conductor sections.
  • This structure results in an inner conductor path with a length compared to the exemplary embodiment according to FIG Figure 12a , intermediate and successive double capacitive coupling from the end of an inner conductor section to the tubular intermediate piece and from the tubular intermediate piece to the next inner conductor section etc ..
  • An adjustable filter arrangement is, for example, also from the US 2006/0170522 A1 known.
  • coaxial inner conductor sections are arranged within a coaxial conductor at a distance therefrom, the end faces of which are spaced apart from one another. Over a certain axial length of these inner conductor ends, they are surrounded by an insulating sleeve, which in turn is located in a conductive sleeve.
  • a high-frequency filter with a sleeve tuning element which, in addition to an outer conductor, comprises a continuous inner conductor arrangement.
  • On the continuous inner conductor arrangement are in axial Distances provided as parallel elements capacitances that represent a capacitive connection between the inner conductor and the outer conductor.
  • capacitances that represent a capacitive connection between the inner conductor and the outer conductor.
  • a ring capacitor is formed at each of the two opposite ends, one ring capacitor being galvanically connected to the one inner conductor section via a connecting line and the other ring capacitor being galvanically connected to the spaced-apart second inner conductor section via a further connecting line.
  • a further separate ring capacitor is provided, which is galvanically connected to the outer conductor via a radial grid arrangement.
  • a high-frequency filter can also be seen as known, which has an intermediate inner conductor between the input and output-side inner conductor section.
  • a two-stage capacitive transmission is provided between the input-side inner conductor section and this intermediate inner conductor as well as from the intermediate inner conductor to the output-side inner conductor section.
  • a high-frequency filter can also be found, which has a coupling element between the input and output-side inner conductor, which ultimately has the same width as the inner conductor sections. This brings about a capacitive coupling from an inner conductor section to the coupling element located between the inner conductor sections and from this to the opposite inner conductor section, that is to say a two-stage capacitive coupling connected in series.
  • the inner conductor intermediate piece is connected to the outer conductor via a branch line.
  • a so-called high-pass filter a so-called high-pass filter
  • the high-pass filter according to the invention is distinguished by a tolerance sensitivity that is significantly improved compared to the prior art.
  • the high-pass filter according to the invention can also be used as a single filter, but also in combination with one or more similar or different high-frequency filters.
  • the solution according to the invention consists essentially in that an additional inner conductor coupling element is built into the high-frequency filter track, this additional inner conductor coupling element either being metallic and therefore electrically conductive or consisting of or comprising a metallic or electrically conductive coated dielectric .
  • the inner conductor coupling element additionally attached according to the invention is provided in the area of the frontal coupling of the inner conductor sections. If this inner conductor coupling element is, for example, hollow-cylindrical or generally provided with an inner recess, the ends of the adjacent inner conductor sections, i.e. the respective inner conductor end faces, can face each other wholly or at least partially within the inner conductor coupling element in this inner conductor coupling element.
  • the inner conductor coupling element with the inner conductor sections interacting with it is arranged so as to overlap only in a partial circumferential area, i.e. for example only over an axial length away from the respective end face of the inner conductor section with the end area of the associated inner conductor -Section covered in order to realize the additional coupling here.
  • the electrical connection of the inner conductor to the outer conductor is then not made from the inner conductor sections, but rather with corresponding branch lines from the inner conductor coupling elements.
  • a blocking pole can be achieved with each high-pass filter according to the invention using a corresponding inner conductor coupling element.
  • several such structures can be connected one behind the other (in series), with several additional blocking poles being able to be generated by appropriate coordination.
  • the high-pass filter according to the invention can also be assembled with conventional further high-pass filter structures while generating one or more blocking poles. There are also no restrictions in this respect.
  • the design of the high-frequency filter can be significantly shortened compared to the prior art. This results in overall more compact overall dimensions.
  • the mechanical stability can also be increased by the inner conductor coupling elements used. This is especially true when a dielectric is used in solid form, i.e. not in air. This is because the inner conductor sections, the inner conductor coupling elements and / or the branch lines can also be stabilized and held in this way.
  • the dielectric which is at least partially in the inner conductor coupling element in which the inner conductor sections end, can take on an additional positioning function of the inner conductor coupling element and thus also of the inner conductor sections, especially when the dielectric is also outside the Inner conductor coupling element is provided in the corresponding receiving space (bore, channel) of the outer conductor arrangement.
  • Further dielectrics for mechanical stabilization within the structures are also possible, for example also layered dielectrics.
  • the structures according to the invention allow high powers to be transmitted. There is also an overall good intermodulation behavior - which is also of great importance in mobile radio technology in particular. Finally, it can and must be noted that, within the scope of the solution according to the invention, good heat dissipation is still achieved via the inner conductor coupling elements and, for example, the galvanic coupling to the outer conductor.
  • a further improvement can also be achieved within the scope of the invention in that the coupling of the inner conductor structures between the inner conductor coupling elements and the outer conductor does not necessarily have to take place in that the corresponding branch lines are galvanically connected to the outer conductor. It is also possible that the branch lines are capacitively coupled to the outer conductor. In this case too, the solid dielectric that may be located in the interior of the outer conductor can also be used to position and fix the branch lines capacitively coupled to the outer conductor.
  • a high-frequency filter is created within the scope of the invention, namely a so-called high-pass filter, in which a blocking pole can be generated below the pass band by specifically introducing a structure, also referred to below as an inner conductor coupling element. If several such structures are connected in series, several blocking poles can be generated below the pass band.
  • an inner conductor coupling element can be electrically conductive because it consists, for example, of a metal or a metallic structure, or it can be formed from or comprise a dielectric, which for example is coated electrically conductive.
  • Such a design according to the invention of one or more additional blocking poles leads to a significant steepening of the blocking range and to a shortened design while at the same time the high-pass filter is insensitive to tolerances compared to previous solutions.
  • the invention can be used both as an individual filter and in combination with one or more high-frequency filters of the same type or of different types.
  • one of the main applications is the use of so-called duplex filters or, for example, triplexers.
  • This exemplary embodiment according to the invention differs from the high-frequency filter in coaxial construction according to the prior art according to FIGS Figures 12a and 12b Among other things, in that an inner conductor coupling device 15 in the manner of an inner conductor coupling element 115 is now provided in the area of the inner conductor end sections 5c, over which the inner conductor end sections 5c overlap with the inner conductor coupling element 115 with a certain axial length.

Furthermore, the in Figure 4e Inner conductor end section 5c lying on the left into a tapered end section 5'c which has a smaller outer diameter. The inner conductor end section on the right has here, adjacent to the dielectric 23, a circumferential annular shoulder 5r which has a larger outer diameter than the inner conductor end section which dips into the dielectric.
  • the variant according to Figure 4f shows only a plate-shaped coupling element 115 which, with the interposition of a dielectric 23, is arranged in an overlapping manner and connected to the inner conductor end sections 5c (parallel position to this) running towards one another and ending at a short distance A from one another.
  • the variant according to Figure 4g further shows that the coupling element (even if it is, for example, completely or partially closed in the circumferential direction) does not have to have the same outer or inner diameter over its axial length. In this embodiment according to Figure 4g it is designed conically. Finally, however, other gradations can also be provided not only on the inner conductor, but also on the coupling device 15, as shown, for example, on the basis of FIG Figures 4c and 4e is shown with respect to an elevation 15e or 15s for the gradation.
  • Figure 4h shows only schematically that, in general, the inner conductor end sections to be coupled directly capacitively do not necessarily have to be in an axial extension of one another, but can generally end next to one another.
  • FIG Figure 5a in longitudinal section
  • Figure 5b in cross section along the line VV in Figure 5a
  • FIG. 5b shows a further similar modification to the previous exemplary embodiments, quasi in the sense of a reversal to the embodiment variant according to FIG Figures 1a and 1b .
  • the actual inner conductor coupling element 115 then being arranged on the inside between the fork-shaped or pot-shaped inner conductor end section. This also results in the multiple capacitive coupling directly between the inner conductor end sections on the one hand and between the respective inner conductor end section and the associated inner conductor coupling element on the other hand.
  • Figure 6a shows one to Figure 5a corresponding embodiment, however, again with the difference that - similar to in Figure 3a the branch lines 7 are not galvanically connected to the outer conductor, but rather capacitively in the area of the branch line base sections 7a.
  • Figure 6b shows a corresponding cross-sectional view along the line VI-VI in FIG Figure 6a .
  • a solid dielectric or air can be provided as the dielectric.
  • the branch line coupling section 7a can be designed in the shape of a pin or preferably plate and comes to lie at a small distance A1 from a correspondingly shaped, here flat coupling plane to the outer conductor 1. If necessary, a dielectric 23 ′ made of solid material and not of air can again be provided here. The coupling surface of the outer conductor here runs perpendicular to the extension of the outer conductor.
  • the branch lines 7 do not necessarily have to end in branch line channels 9 in the outer conductor housing 1, i.e. the outer conductor housing does not necessarily have to be provided with an outer conductor housing extension 1 ', as explained in one of the previous exemplary embodiments.
  • an outer conductor housing with a square or tubular cross-section is used, in which the inner conductor sections with the coupling elements and the branch lines extending therefrom are arranged in the corresponding inner conductor space 21, which are galvanically or capacitively connected to the outer conductor housing at the end.
  • the individual branch lines can also be galvanically or capacitively connected on opposite sides to the outer conductor housing or also to the base or cover at the end.
  • the individual branch line ducts 9 can, however, also be provided in a corresponding cover construction, so that the branch lines can be provided and accommodated here.
  • tuning elements T at one or more points of the outer conductor housing, preferably from the outside adjustable (for example by turning them in and out of different lengths into the interior space 21).
  • a tuning element T on the right is formed in the shape of a rod and even protrudes over the opening section 15d into the space within the coupling element 115 into a space provided there in the dielectric and can also be moved differently into the dielectric from the outside, preferably by further turning it in and out Outer conductor housing can be adjusted protruding.
  • all electrically conductive structures can consist of metal, metal alloys, for example cast, milled, turned, deep-drawn and / or sheet metal or bent parts. It is also possible, however, for the correspondingly explained electrically conductive parts to consist of an insulator, plastic, generally a dielectric, and for the electrically conductive parts or surfaces to be covered with an electrically conductive surface.
  • Mixed forms of metallic components for example for the outer conductors
  • parts arranged inside such as the coupling element, inner conductor sections or branch lines can also consist of electrically conductive surfaces provided with or formed on electrically conductive surfaces Tracks can be formed which are also made of dielectric materials, for example.
  • a high-pass filter with a coaxial structure i.e. with an inner conductor or inner conductor section running into an outer conductor
  • a coaxial structure i.e. with an inner conductor or inner conductor section running into an outer conductor
  • a blocking pole can be achieved per inner conductor coupling element 115 used, that is to say generally per inner conductor coupling device 15 used.
  • the explained high-pass filter can typically be used in the frequency range from 100 MHz to 10 GHz.
  • the electrical coupling of the individual conductor sections i.e. the individual conductor sections 5b to one another, can be achieved via the distance between the end faces of the directly coupled inner conductor sections and via the distance between the inner conductor end section 5c (or its outer surface 5d) and the adjacent upper and / or inner surface 15c of the inner conductor coupling device 15, in particular of the inner conductor coupling element 115, as well as through the use of a dielectric, or their size can be set differently.
  • the frontal capacitive coupling of the line sections creates a blocking pole below the pass band.
  • the inner conductor coupling elements are galvanically connected or capacitively coupled to the outer conductor.
  • the inner conductors as well as the coupling devices can be made from a wide variety of inherently electrically conductive materials or from dielectrics with electrically conductive coatings, with the inner conductor also being able to be made from a flat or sheet material, for example such as the branch line.
  • a duplexer consisting of low-pass and high-pass filters can also be constructed, with the high-frequency filter structure according to the invention being used for a high-pass and a conventional filter structure for the low-pass.
