Abstract

This paper proposed the novel method that can realize the parallel coupled line(PCL) band-pass filter with directly coupled feeding structure by means of transforming the first and last PCL sections of the conventional PCL band-pass filter into K-inverters, then substituting T-type equivalence for K-inverter. The proposed method supplies simple design formulae and can considerably reduce time and efforts needed to optimize filter performance when compared to reported methods using external Q or equivalent parameters. On the basis of the proposed method, the band-pass filter using directly coupled feeding structure and having 18% fractional bandwidth was designed and fabricated. The validity of proposed method was proven by the measured result.

본 논문에서는 일반적인 평행 결합 선로 대역 통과 필터의 최외각 결합 선로를 K-인버터로 변환하고, K-인버터를 T-형 등가로 대체함으로써 직접 결합 급전 구조 대역 통과 필터를 구현하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 기존의 외부 Q나 등가화 파라미터를 이용한 방법에 비해 매우 간단한 설계식을 제공하고, 특성의 적정화를 위한 노력과 시간을 상당히 줄일 수 있다. 제안한 이론에 의해 18%의 부분 대역폭을 갖는 직접 결합급전 구조 대역 통과 필터가 설계 및 제작되었고, 그 결과로부터 제안 방법의 타당성이 입증되었다.
