An automatic tuning scheme for two active band-pass filters where both filters operate on the signal while simultaneously being tuned using a reference signal. To allow that the amplitude of a reference signal is made small and since both filters demonstrate a good linearity the build-up of the inter-modulation distortion does not occur. The first band-pass filter is tuned with the reference falling into its pass-band. The second band-pass filter is also tuned with the reference placed into its pass-band. The reference is practically eliminated by the virtue of the complexity of the second band-pass filter. Assuming the filter passes the signal for positive frequencies if the reference is made a negative frequency by appropriate 90 degrees phase shifting it will be attenuated by at least 55 dB, which is a sufficient signal-to-reference ratio.

The present invention selectively uses a high-impedance layer to reduce the effects of E-M scattering at metallic discontinuities. The high-impedance layer can be fabricated using a combination of metallic and resistive materials that are typically used in electro-static discharging (ESD) applications. A thin layer of metal can be deposited on the surface of a dielectric substrate such as polyethylene. This metallic layer can be on an inner, outer, or buried layer of the material. The metallic layer allows the RF induced currents to spread out over a designated surface area. A layer of resistive material can be applied to a similar dielectric layer. The resistive layer provides sufficient attenuation to decrease the RF surface waves and minimize electromagnetic scattering on the printed circuit board (PCB). Furthermore, since the metallic and resistive materials can be applied in very thin layers, sufficient transparency can be preserved in desired areas such as the mobile phone's display region.
