A novel circuit structure of dual-band bandstop filters is proposed in this paper. This structure comprises two shunt-connected tri-section stepped impedance resonators with a transmission line in between. Theoretical analysis from the equivalent circuit and design procedures are described. We represented graphs for filter design from the derived synthesis equations by resonance condition of circuits. Notably, advantages of the proposed filter structure are compact size in design, wide range of realizable resonance frequency ratio, and more realizable impedances.

This letter presents the design of a compact bandstop filter (BSF) operating at two frequencies. The proposed BSF consists of open-ended stepped impedance resonators (OSIR) and an end-shorted parallel-coupled microstrip line (E-PCML). The OSIRs are used to achieve the impedance-controlled stopband positions. The wide BSF bandwidths are achieved through enhanced coupling of the E-PCML. Explicit design guidelines are derived using a lossless transmission line model. To validate theoretical predictions, a prototype dual-band BSF operating at 900 MHz and 2,100 MHz with fractional bandwidths of 72% and 36%, respectively, is implemented in microstrip.

본 논문에서는 하나의 이중 모드 공진기를 이용한 대역 통과 필터의 새로운 설계 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 설계 방법은 이중 모드 공진기를 두 개의 단일 공진기로 보고 공진기 사이의 결합 계수를 구하여, 이를 바탕으로 이중 모드 공진기의 두 공진 주파수를 계산한 후 필터 전송 영점의 위치에 따라 각각 배치하였다. 제안한 설계 방법을 검증하기 위해, E-모양의 이중 모드 공진기를 이용하여 WLAN 서비스 대역을 만족하고, 전송 영점이 각각 상측과 하측에 위치하는 대역 통과 필터를 설계 제작하였다.

본 논문에서는 서로 다른 공진점을 갖는 공진기들을 이용하여 이중 대역 통과 필터를 구현하였다. 서로 다른 공진점을 갖는 $\lambda_g$/2 공진기들을 이용하여 각 공진기들의 동작 주파수가 서로의 동작 주파수에 영향을 미치지 않는 것을 이용하여 이중 대역 통과 필터를 설계하였다. 하측 통과 대역은 $\lambda_g$/2 공진기와 $\lambda_g$/4 공진기를 이용하였고, 상측 통과 대역은 이중 모드 공진기를 이용하여 설계하였으며, 하측 통과 대역의 공진기는 상측 통과 대역의 급전부로 동작한다. 제안된 구조는 WLAN 대역인 2.45/5.2 GHz와 2.45/5.8 GHz에서 동작하도록 설계 제작되었다.

For grid-connected LCL-filtered inverters, dual-loop current control with an inner-loop active damping (AD) based on capacitor current feedback is generally used for the sake of current quality. However, existing studies on capacitor current feedback AD with a control delay do not reveal the mathematical relation among the dual-loop stability, capacitor current feedback factor, delay time and LCL parameters. The robustness was not investigated through mathematical derivations. Thus, this paper aims to provide a systematic study of dual-loop current control in a digitally-controlled inverter. At first, the stable region of the inner-loop AD is derived. Then, the dual-loop stability and robustness are analyzed by mathematical derivations when the inner-loop AD is stable and unstable. Robust design principles for the inner-loop AD feedback factor and the outer-loop current controller are derived. Most importantly, ensuring the stability of the inner-loop AD is critical for achieving high robustness against a large grid impedance. Then, several improved approaches are proposed and synthesized. The limitations and benefits of all of the approaches are identified to help engineers apply capacitor current feedback AD in practice.

In this paper, we explore the application of 2-D dual-tree discrete wavelet transform (DDWT), which is a directional and redundant transform, for image coding. DDWT main property is a more computationally efficient approach to shift invariance. Also, the DDWT gives much better directional selectivity when filtering multidimensional signals. The dual-tree DWT of a signal is implemented using two critically-sampled DWTs in parallel on the same data. The transform is 2-times expansive because for an N-point signal it gives 2N DWT coefficients. If the filters are designed is a specific way, then the sub-band signals of the upper DWT can be interpreted as the real part of a complex wavelet transform, and sub-band signals of the lower DWT can be interpreted as the imaginary part. The quincunx lattice is a sampling method in image processing. It treats the different directions more homogeneously than the separable two dimensional schemes. Quincunx lattice yields a non separable 2D-wavelet transform, which is also symmetric in both horizontal and vertical direction. And non-separable wavelet transformation can generate sub-images of multiple degrees rotated versions. Therefore, non-separable image processing using DDWT services good performance.

선박용 무선 LAN은 설비의 용이성, 원가절감, 다양한 기능성으로 각광받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스텝 스터브를 부가하여 2.4 GHz대역과 5.2 GHz대역에서 동작하는 이중 대역통과 필터를 설계하는 방법을 제안한다. 스텝 스터브를 부가한 새로운 형태의 이중 대역통과 필터는 개방 스터브를 부가한 이중 대역통과 필터보다 10 dB 이상 성능이 개선되었고, 기존의 대역통과 필터보다 설계치와 측정치의 오차가 감소됨에 따라 실제 사용할 경우의 성능이 향상되는 효과를 확인하였다. 제작된 이중 대역통과 필터의 설계결과와 측정결과가 거의 일치함을 보임으로써, 본 논문에서 제안한 설계 방법이 타당함을 확인하였다.

The energy efficiency of wireless infrastructure and terminals has been drawing renewed attention of late, due to their significant environmental cost. Emerging green communication paradigms such as cognitive radios, are also imposing the additional requirement of flexibility. This dual requirement of energy efficiency and flexibility poses new design challenges for implementing radio functional blocks. This paper focuses on the area vs. power trade-offs for the type of channel filters that are required in the digital frontend of a flexible, energy-efficient radio. In traditional CMOS circuits, increased area was traded for reduced dynamic power consumption. With leakage power emerging as the dominant mode of power consumption in nanoscale CMOS, these trade-offs must be revisited due to the strong correlation between area and leakage power. The current work discusses how the increased timing slacks obtained by increasing the parallelism can be exploited for overall power reduction even in nanoscale circuits. In this context the paper introduces the notion of 'area efficiency' and a metric for evaluating it. The proposed metric has also been used to compare the area efficiencies of different classes of time-shared filters.

This paper presents an overview of recent advances in radio frequency and microwave filter topologies for satellite communication systems. Many types of filters have been developed during the last years in order to satisfy the demands of modern applications in both terrestrial systems and onboard spacecrafts, leading to a great variety of aspects such as transfer functions, resonator implementations or coupling structures. This paper revisits some of the last advances in this area, including the modeling and full-wave simulation. Some recent designs using dual-mode cavities along with other novel implementations in ridge waveguide will be shown.

This paper proposes a new stereophonic acoustic echo canceler with deploying delayless subband adpative filters. Due to the storong correlation between stereo signals, a stereophonic acoustic echo canceler is suffering from the slow convergence and the misalignment for estimating impulse responses corresponding to true echo paths at receiving room. Specially, dual adaptive filters for echo cancellation are significantly affected by the abrupt change of the transmission room environment so that the impariments on voice communication could be experienced. To prevent these performance degradations, this paper proposes a robust subband echo canceler employing pre-processing block so as to enhance the convergence speed and provide the insusceptibility to the environment change at transmission room.
