Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a dielectric filter.
  • a dielectric filter is widely applied to various communications systems gradually because of its small size, low loss, and high selectivity.
  • the dielectric filter is designed by using a dielectric material (for example, ceramic) that is characterized by a low loss, a high dielectric constant, a small frequency temperature coefficient, a small coefficient of thermal expansion, high bearable power, and the like.
  • the dielectric filter may be formed by several long-type resonators arranged in multi-level series or parallel longitudinally along a trapezoidal line.
  • Such dielectric filter is characterized by a low insertion loss, a high power capacity, and narrow bandwidth, and is especially suitable for filtering at 900 MHz, 1.8 GHz, 2.4 GHz, and 5.8 GHz, and therefore can be applied to level coupling filtering of a portable phone, a car phone, a wireless headset, a wireless microphone, a radio station, a cordless telephone, an integrated transceiver duplexer, or the like.
  • the dielectric filter includes a cavity, a dielectric resonator fastened in the cavity, a cover plate, and a tuning screw.
  • a TEoi mode dielectric filter is a type of dielectric filter, and has a good single-cavity Q value characteristic.
  • the TE 01 mode dielectric filter is widely applied to a wireless communications system, to reduce a system loss and improve efficiency.
  • the TE 01 mode dielectric filter also has the following disadvantages: Because a frequency of a high-order harmonic wave of the TE 01 mode dielectric filter is close to a TE 01 mode frequency, it is difficult for the TEoi mode dielectric filter to suppress the high-order harmonic wave.
  • From EP 1 104 043 A1 multimode dielectric filters are known.
  • From EP 1 301 961 A1 RF filters comprising a dielectric housing with a cavity are known.
  • From EP 1 079 457 A2 dielectric resonators for RF applications are known.
  • From US 6,717,490 B1 and CN 104 037 478 A dielectric RF filters comprising a cavity where microwaves can propagate are known.

  • the cover plate covers the cavity to close the accommodating cavity.
  • the connecting rib is accommodated in the accommodating cavity, and is disposed on a radiation plane formed between a radiation radiated from a center axis of the resonator onto the cavity wall and the center axis of the resonator, where a shortest distance between the connecting rib and the main medium is greater than a preset value. Because the connecting rib is disposed on the radiation plane formed between the radiation radiated from the center axis of the resonator onto the cavity wall and the center axis I of the resonator, and the connecting rib is orthogonal to a magnetic field of a high-order harmonic wave of the dielectric filter, the connecting rib affects a path of the magnetic field, resulting in a change in a frequency of the high-order harmonic wave.
  • the connecting rib is disposed inside the accommodating cavity, a volume of air in the accommodating cavity becomes smaller, so that the frequency of the high-order harmonic wave becomes higher. This implements a function of pushing away the high-order harmonic wave.
  • the dielectric filter in the present invention also maintains performance of a TE 01 mode when pushing away the high-order harmonic wave for suppression.
  • FIG. 1 shows a dielectric filter 100.

  • the materials of the main medium 23 and the support medium 22 may be materials, such as ceramic and titanate, that have properties such as a high dielectric constant, a low loss, and a stable temperature coefficient. Specifically, a dielectric constant of the main medium 23 is large, and a dielectric constant of the support medium 22 is small. In this way, most of electromagnetic waves can be trapped inside the main medium 23, and therefore a dielectric loss is small.
  • connecting rib 50 may also be disposed on the cover plate 30 or the cavity wall 12. Certainly, connecting ribs 50 may be separately disposed on any two of the bottom wall 112, the cover plate 30, and the cavity wall 12, or connecting ribs 50 may be separately disposed on the bottom wall 112, the cover plate 30, and the cavity wall 12.

  • the connecting rib 50 almost does not affect the TE 01 mode, and therefore a frequency and a Q value of the TEoi mode of the dielectric filter 100 is almost unchanged. In this way, performance of the TEoi mode is maintained.
  • the performance of the TE 01 mode is reflected by the frequency and the Q value of the TE 01 mode.

Further, because the connecting rib 50 is disposed inside the accommodating cavity 11, a volume of air in the accommodating cavity 11 becomes smaller, so that a frequency of the high-order harmonic wave becomes higher. Therefore, a function of pushing away the high-order harmonic wave is implemented.
  • the dielectric filter 100 in the present invention also maintains performance of a TEoi mode when pushing away the high-order harmonic wave for suppression.

  • a larger volume that is of the accommodating cavity 11 and that is occupied by the connecting rib 50 indicates a smaller volume of air in the accommodating cavity 11, resulting in a higher frequency of the high-order harmonic wave. Therefore, the push-away effect on the high-order harmonic wave is better.

  • the connecting rib 50 may also not be limited to being disposed only on the radiation plane formed between the radiation radiated from the center axis I of the resonator 20 onto the cavity wall 12 and the center axis I of the resonator 20. Provided that the connecting rib 50 is disposed in a tangent line direction of a magnetic field of a TE 01 mode, the connecting rib 50 is orthogonal to a magnetic field of a high-order harmonic wave of the dielectric filter 100. This affects a path of the magnetic field of the high-order harmonic wave, resulting in a change in a frequency of the high-order harmonic wave, thereby achieving a same effect on pushing away the high-order harmonic wave.
  • the connecting rib 50 affects the path of the magnetic field of the high-order harmonic wave, and the frequency of the high-order harmonic wave can be changed, just bringing less impact on the path of the magnetic field of the high-order harmonic wave and changing the frequency of the high-order harmonic wave in comparison with impact caused due to that the connecting rib 50 is orthogonal to the magnetic field of the high-order harmonic wave.

When a height of the connecting rib 50 is constant, the connecting rib 50 has a longest length. Therefore, an area that is of the connecting rib 50 and that is perpendicular to the magnetic field of the high-order harmonic wave is largest, and greatest impact on the magnetic field of the high-order harmonic wave is caused. Therefore, a best effect of pushing away the high-order harmonic wave is achieved.

  • the dielectric filter 100 includes the connecting rib 50.
  • the connecting rib 50 is accommodated in an accommodating cavity 11. A shortest distance between the connecting rib 50 and a main medium 23
  • the connecting rib 50 is orthogonal to a magnetic field of a high-order harmonic wave of the dielectric filter 100, the connecting rib 50 affects a path of the magnetic field, resulting in a change in a frequency of the high-order harmonic wave. Further, because the connecting rib 50 is disposed inside the accommodating cavity 11, a volume of air in the accommodating cavity 11 becomes smaller, so that a frequency of the high-order harmonic wave becomes higher. Therefore, a function of pushing away the high-order harmonic wave is implemented.
  • the base station 2000 of the present invention also maintains performance of the TEoi mode when pushing away the high-order harmonic wave for suppression.
