Fabrication and measurements of the magnetically tunable YIG band pass or stop filter at X-band are discussed. Using two YIG spheres located at the region of r-f circularly polarized magnetic field between the strip lines, the pass or stop characteristics of the filter are obtained. In the case of band stop, the output level is typically 25db lower than the input power. Contrarily for the pass band, the pass band level is 22db higher than the stop frequency region. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical values of FMR. Further it is shown that the structure can be used for a directional coupler.

We demonstrate an ultrathin metamaterial for polarization independent perfect absorption as well as a band-pass filter (BPF) which works at a higher frequency band compared to the perfect absorption band. The planar metamaterial is comprised of three layers, symmetric split ring resonators (SSRRs) at the front and structured ground plane (SGP) at the back separated by a dielectric layer. The perfect metamaterial absorber (MA) can realize near 100% absorption due to high electromagnetic losses from the electric and/or magnetic resonances within a certain frequency band. The thickness of the structure is only 1/28 of the maximum absorption wavelength.

The optical characteristics of a tunable flattened-pass-band fiber comb filter, based on the polarization-diversified loop configuration, are investigated using the $Poincar{\acute{e}}$-sphere representation. In the design process, the spectral flatness is checked quantitatively, and the tunability of the pass band is demonstrated experimentally. Theoretical calculations show that the filter also exhibits desirable dispersion and polarization properties. The orientation angles of rotatable wave plates for the wavelength tunability of the filter are obtained. Furthermore, we elaborate on the multiple angle loci produced by degeneracies through the combination of optical elements within the loop of the filter.

In this paper, we propose a band rejection filter (BRF) with a state variable filter (SVF) structure to effectively remove the influence of 60 Hz line frequency noise introduced into the sensor system. The conventional BRF of the SVF structure uses an additional operational amplifier (OPAMP) to add a low pass filter (LPF) output and a high pass filter (HPF) output or an input signal and a band pass filter. Therefore, the notch frequency and the notch depth that determine the signal attenuation of the BRF greatly depend on the tolerance of the resistors used to obtain the sum or difference of the signals. On the other hand, in the proposed BRF, since the BRF output is formed naturally within the SVF structure, there is no need for a combination between each port. The notch frequency of the proposed BRF is 59.99 Hz, and it can be confirmed that it is not affected at all by the tolerance of the resistor through the Monte Carlo simulation results. The notch depth also has an average of -42.54dB and a standard deviation of 0.63dB, confirming that normal operation as a BRF is possible. Also, with the proposed BRF, noise filtering was applied to the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal that interfered with 60 Hz noise, and it was confirmed that the 60 Hz noise was appropriately suppressed.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the frequency band pass filter on the P300 event-related potential in the working memory. Methods : The subjects were 20 women in their 20s who applied for participation in the experiment. Event-related potentials (ERPs) were elicited using 3-back tasks for the working memory, and were recorded from Fz, Cz, and Pz scalp electrodes. The high-pass filters were set to 0.01, 0.1, and 0.3 Hz for analysis purposes, and the low-pass filters were set to 30 and 15 Hz. The 3-back task was presented for a total of 100 times, among which 30 times were designated for the target stimulation (a matched number) and 70 times for the non-target stimulation (an unmatched number). The temporal interval between each stimulation was set at 1 second, while each time duration was randomly presented between 2 to 4 seconds. ERP were analyzed for the P300 recorded from Fz, Pz and Cz scalp electrodes. Results : Latency and amplitude had no significant interaction effects in both the high- and low-pass filters. For the main effects, the latency and amplitude of the P300 event-related potential had no significant difference in the high-pass filters, but the latency had a significant difference in the low-pass filter of Fz, and the amplitude had a significant difference in the low-pass filter of Pz. Conclusion : The results of this study showed that the less than 0.3 Hz high filters had no effects on the differences between the latency and amplitude of the P300 event-related potential in the working memory. The 30Hz low-pass filter, however, was found to be useful for recording the P300 event-related potential in the working memory.

A novel empirical mode decomposition strategy based on Fourier transform and band-pass filter techniques, contributing to efficient instantaneous vibration analyses, is developed in this study. Two key improvements are proposed. The first is associated with the adoption of a band-pass filter technique for intrinsic mode function sifting. The primary characteristic of decomposed components is that their bandwidths do not overlap in the frequency domain. The second improvement concerns an attempt to design narrowband constraints as the essential requirements for intrinsic mode function to make it physically meaningful. Because all decomposed components are generated with respect to their intrinsic narrow bandwidth and strict sifting from high to low frequencies successively, they are orthogonal to each other and are thus suitable for an instantaneous frequency analysis. The direct Hilbert spectrum is employed to illustrate the instantaneous time-frequency-energy distribution. Commendable agreement between the illustrations of the proposed direct Hilbert spectrum and the traditional Fourier spectrum was observed. This method provides robust identifications of vibration modes embedded in vibration processes, deemed to be an efficient means to obtain valuable instantaneous information.

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.

A miniaturized wideband band-pass filter with a 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 109.3% (1.53 GHz to 5.22 GHz), high out-of-band attenuation greater than 25 dB, and wide upper stopband up to 14 GHz is proposed. The design consists of a dual-composite right/left handed resonator, embedded open-circuited stub, and a pair of quarter-wavelength short-circuited stubs. These elements are coupled in the near distance to form a miniature filter with a compact occupied area of 0.21 λ_g×0.19 λ_g (≈ 0.013 cm²). The optimized filter has multitransmission poles in the passband, substantially improving the return loss and insertion loss characteristics. The behavior of the passband and stopband is verified against the results of a lumped element model and matrix analysis with a full-wave moment-based analysis and actual measurements. The results of this verification and a comparison with the performance of filters in other references indicate that the proposed filter is very efficient and applicable to compact microwave systems.

For the purpose of decreasing intermodulation distortion, a new multi-harmonic suppression band-pass filter based on a microstrip radial stub is studied. Compared with traditional resonator filters, the new filter can suppress the second, third, and even fourth harmonics directly. The dimension of the filter is about $0.3\;{\lambda}_{g^0}{\times}0.13\;{\lambda}_{g^0}$ (${\lambda}_{g^0}$ is the guiding wavelength at the resonant frequency). Only one gap was introduced, so lower insertion loss can be obtained. Basic agreement between the measured and simulated results has been achieved.
