- FIG. 27 is a second exemplary structural diagram of a main part of a switching terminal and an associated filter applicable to the switching part of the embodiments of the present invention, showing the configuration of the switching terminal when the resonant element 108 is DR.
- the switching pin 26 may be composed of a ferrite component.
- the switching pin 20 of the switching terminal 22 is positioned close to the upper end of the resonating element 108 at the time of entering into the filter and serves to eliminate the resonant function.
- FIG. 27 a structure in which the switching pin 26 is introduced into the filter through the through hole of the tuning screw 17 configured in the hollow form is illustrated as an example.
- Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2009-0053581 name: “tuning method of the dielectric resonance filter” filed by the present applicant , Publication date: May 12, 2009, inventor: Park Nam-shin, Lee Don-yong).
- the structure of the driver (not shown) for moving the switching pin 26 composed of such a ferrite component into the cavity may be configured similarly to the structure of the driver disclosed in FIGS. 24 to 26B.
- the switching unit according to the features of the present invention is applied to the second transmission filter unit (Tx2) side
- the second reception filter unit Rx2 has been described as an example in which a switching unit is not configured.
- the second reception filter is necessarily the second reception filter. This is because it is not necessary to interrupt the operation of the negative Rx2.
- the switching unit may also be configured to be applied to the second reception filter unit Rx2.
- the present invention is preferably applied to a radio frequency filter having a cavity structure, but in addition to the present invention, for a filter having a circuit structure in which a plurality of resonant stages are sequentially connected, a specific resonant stage is connected to a ground end. All can be applied to have a structure.
- the switching unit is applied to only one resonant stage among the plurality of resonant stages constituting the specific filter unit, but in some cases, it may be implemented to be applied to two or more resonant stages, respectively.
