Abstract

A high-performance miniaturized multi-mode ultra-wide band (UWB) filter is proposed in this paper. The simple compact quintuple-mode resonator is constructed by loading three sets of open stubs on a modified conventional triple-mode resonator. Even and odd mode analytical methods are applied to analyze it. In addition, the function of each part of the filter is studied in cases of weak/strong coupling. In order to further improve the insertion loss, selectivity and out-of-band suppression, the designed filter is finally fabricated on double-sided YBCO/MgO/YBCO high-temperature superconducting (HTS) film. The test results show that the HTS UWB filter has excellent performance, and the simulation results are in good agreement with the test ones. The 3-dB bandwidth covers 3.6 ~ 13.2 GHz. The maximum insertion loss in the band was only 0.32 dB, and the reflection was better than –15.1 dB. The band-edge roll-off rate was 56 dB/GHz and the upper stopband with 20 dB rejection extended to 20.7 GHz.

Highlights

  • Because of the rapid development of fifth generation (5G) communication and Internet of Things (IoT) technology, ultra-wide band (UWB) wireless communication system has become a hot research topic

  • An excellent UWB filter should have the characteristics of low insertion loss, a low-voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), a high band-edge roll-off rate and small size

  • In 2018, we designed two UWB filters based on these two structures [14,15], but their return loss and dimension still have room for improvement

Summary

Introduction

Because of the rapid development of fifth generation (5G) communication and Internet of Things (IoT) technology, ultra-wide band (UWB) wireless communication system has become a hot research topic. Many kinds of UWB filters based on multi-mode resonators have been widely studied by researchers [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]. In 2018, we designed two UWB filters based on these two structures [14,15], but their return loss and dimension still have room for improvement. The high-impedance lines of the traditional triple-mode resonator were bent by. The UWB filter was fabricated on a high-temperature superconductor to well. The UWB filter fabricated onfabricated a high-temperature superconductor to efficaciously improved as well. Thewas filter was on a high-temperature superconductor to efficaciously ameliorate the problems mentioned above.
