Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of microwave communication, and particularly relates to a wide-bandwidth non-reflective dual-band filter. BACKGROUND
[0002] In modern wireless communication systems, filters as key passive devices, their performance is directly related to the quality and transmission efficiency of signals. With the continuous development of wireless communication technology, especially the rise of new generation communication technologies such as 5G and 6G, the performance requirements of filters are increasingly improved. The traditional filter usually produces reflection when processing out-of-band signals, which not only may cause signal distortion, but also may cause unnecessary interference in the system. In order to optimize the system performance and reduce signal interference, the academia and industry have begun to widely study non-reflective filters. This kind of filter can absorb out-of-band frequency signals by adding additional absorbing circuits and other ways, thereby significantly reducing reflection and improving the quality of signal transmission. At present, although the research on non-reflective filters has made significant progress, most of the research still focuses on single frequency band, and the stopband and level width are limited. However, with the continuous progress of wireless communication technology, single-band filters have been unable to meet the complex and changing communication needs, and the research on dual-band or even multi-band filters has gradually become a hot spot. On the other hand, wide-bandwidth filters have a wide stopband range, which can effectively suppress unwanted signals or interference in a wide frequency range, helping modern communication systems to flexibly adjust their passband and stopband ranges, optimizing the utilization of spectrum resources, improving the spectral efficiency of communication systems, and enhancing the electromagnetic compatibility of devices and reducing the influence of mutual interference.
[0003] Although some researches have involved dual-band or multi-band filters, there are still many challenges in simultaneously achieving wide-bandwidth and non-reflective performance. First, the design complexity of dual-band filters is much higher than that of single-band filters, which requires precise control of the frequency response of two passbands while ensuring that the stopband has sufficient width and attenuation. Second, achieving the non-reflective characteristic of dual-band filters requires good matching in multiple passband ranges to reduce reflection and return loss. This requires designers to use appropriate matching circuits and structural designs to ensure that the filter can achieve non-reflective or low reflection in multiple wide-bandwidth and out-of-band passbands, which undoubtedly greatly increases the complexity and difficulty of the main circuit and absorbing circuit. In addition, under the condition of ensuring the matching of the complex absorbing circuit and the dual-band main circuit, achieving effective signal suppression in a wide frequency range and obtaining a wide stopband bandwidth further increases the design difficulty of the overall circuit.
[0004] Existing dual-band filters often exhibit reflections outside their operating bands, while the few available non-reflective dual-band or multi-band filters often suffer from complex structures, large size, poor absorption, and poor high-stopband performance. Furthermore, while pursuing non-reflective characteristics, these filters often sacrifice certain out-of-band suppression performance and insertion loss, particularly in the transition region between the two frequency bands and in the high-stopband region, resulting in poor harmonic suppression. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Therefore, the present invention solves the problems in the prior art that dual-band filters usually have reflected signals outside the working band, and a small number of non-reflective dual-band or multi-band filters often have complex structures, large volumes, poor absorption effects, and poor high-stopband effects. In addition, while pursuing non-reflection characteristics, non-reflection dual-band filters often sacrifice certain out-of-band suppression performance and insertion loss, especially in the transition region between the two frequency bands and the high-stopband region, and have poor harmonic suppression. The present invention provides a wide-stopband non-reflective dual-band filter, the circuit of which not only has the characteristics of simple structure, planarization, and easy integration in terms of structure, but also has the advantages of multi-band, full-band non-reflection, and wide stopband.

[0010] Furthermore, the fan-shaped resonant structure includes a first fan-shaped patch pair structure, a third fan-shaped patch pair structure, and a second fan-shaped patch pair structure that are symmetrical in top and bottom. The first fan-shaped patch pair structure and the second fan-shaped patch pair structure are connected at their respective symmetry points.

[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] This embodiment provides a wide stopband non-reflective dual-frequency filter, such as Figure 1As shown. It mainly consists of a dual-band filter network 1, a pair of absorption networks 1-3, a pair of absorption networks 2-4, a pair of fan-shaped resonant structures 2, an input port 5 and an output port 6. The dual-band filter network 1, the pair of absorption networks 1-3 and the pair of absorption networks 2-4 together form a reflectionless dual-band bandpass filter circuit. The two ends of the reflectionless dual-band bandpass filter circuit are respectively connected to a pair of fan-shaped resonant structures 2, and the other ends connected to the fan-shaped resonant structures 2 are respectively connected to the input port 5 and the output port 6 for energy input and output. Specifically, the input port 5 is connected to the fan-shaped resonant structure 2, the dual-band filter network 1, the fan-shaped resonant structure 2 and the output port 6 are connected in series in sequence, the fan-shaped resonant structure 2 is connected in parallel with the absorption network 1-3 at the connection between the fan-shaped resonant structure 2 and the input / output port 6, and two branches are connected in parallel inside the dual-band filter network 1 circuit and connected to the absorption network 1-3. The entire dual-band filter circuit with wide stopband and reflectionless characteristics is completely symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides.
[0037] Figure 2 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the reflectionless dual-band bandpass filter circuit described in . Figure 2 As shown, dual-band filter network 1 consists of a pair of quarter-wavelength coupled microstrip lines MCL1, as well as quarter-wavelength microstrip lines ML2 and three-quarter-wavelength microstrip lines ML1. The left end of the first coupled line MCL1a of coupled microstrip line MCL1 is open-circuited, and the right end is connected to microstrip line ML2. The left end of the second coupled line MCL1b of coupled microstrip line MCL1 is connected to port 1, and the right end of MCL1b is connected to absorption network 1-3. Absorption network 1-3 is composed of resistor R2, quarter-wavelength microstrip line ML3, and half-wavelength microstrip line ML4 connected in series, with the ends of absorption network 1-3 open-circuited. Absorption network 2-4 is connected in parallel at the junction of input port 5 and coupled microstrip line MCL1. Absorption network 2-4 consists of four quarter-wavelength microstrip lines (ML5, ML6, ML7, and ML8) and resistor R1. Microstrip line ML5, resistor R1, and microstrip line ML7 are connected in series, with the other end of microstrip line ML7 grounded. The connection between microstrip line ML5 and resistor R1 is connected in parallel to microstrip line ML6. The connection between microstrip line ML7 and resistor R1 is connected in parallel to microstrip line ML8. Finally, the above structure is mirrored with the vertical center axis of microstrip line ML2 as the symmetry line, forming a completely symmetrical circuit distribution on the left and right sides. Input port 5 is mirrored to form output port 6.
[0038] Figure 3 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the fan-shaped resonant structure 2. Figure 3As can be seen in the figure, the fan-shaped resonant structure 2 is mainly composed of three pairs of vertically symmetrical fan-shaped patch pair structures, namely the first fan-shaped patch pair structure 101, the second fan-shaped patch pair structure 102, and the third fan-shaped patch pair structure 103; and three sections of microstrip line structures, namely the first microstrip line structure 104, the second microstrip line structure 105, and the third microstrip line structure 106. The first and second fan-shaped patch pair structures 101 and 102, which are symmetrical in terms of their vertical orientation, are connected at their vertices, and the third fan-shaped patch pair structure 103, which is symmetrical in terms of their vertical orientation, is connected via a section of the first microstrip line structure 104. The three pairs of fan-shaped patch pair structures are horizontally distributed along the horizontal symmetry line and connected in series via the second microstrip line structure 105. The ends of the second microstrip line structure 105 are then connected to the third microstrip line structure 106 to form a complete fan-shaped resonant patch pair structure. The entire structure is completely symmetrical about the horizontal and vertical axes.
[0039] Without a loaded sector-shaped resonant structure 2, a microwave signal is fed into input port 5. After passing through the coupled microstrip line and the half-wavelength coupled microstrip line MCL1 structure, the signal is split into two paths: one path passing through microstrip line ML1, and the other path passing through microstrip line structure ML2. Because the electrical lengths of microstrip lines ML1 and ML2 differ by 180°, high-frequency signals with center frequency f0 cancel out at the convergence point, splitting the bandpass filter response formed by the MWCL1 structure into two, thereby achieving a dual-band filtering effect. Two transmission poles are generated within each passband, and two transmission zeros are generated between the two passbands, ultimately outputting from the output.
[0040] To illustrate the working mechanism of the dual-band reflection-free feature, Figure 4 The working principle of generating non-reflection filtering response by loading absorption network 1 3 and absorption network 2 4 is given. Figure 4 a shows the dual-band bandpass filter response when the absorption network 1 3 and the absorption network 2 4 are not loaded. The effect of loading the absorption network 1 3 is shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2b, the absorption network 3 is a complementary dual-stopband structure with two transmission zeros located at (2n+1)f0 (n=0, 1, 2…), symmetrical about the center frequency f0. It conducts at the center frequency f0 and outside the upper and lower passbands of the filter, cuts off at the center frequencies of the upper and lower passbands, and generates a reflection zero at f0. Therefore, the reflected signal in the stopband between the two passbands is introduced into the absorption network 3 and dissipated by the resistor R2, forming a reflection-free region in the area between the two passbands. Figure 4c is the response curve when the absorption network 1 3 and the absorption network 2 4 are loaded at the same time. The loaded complementary absorption network 2 4 can generate a complementary wide stopband filter with a center frequency of f0, which can guide the reflected signals of the upper and lower frequency bands of the two passbands into the absorption network 2 4 circuit to be absorbed by the resistor R1, and finally form two reflection-free areas in the upper and lower frequency bands of the two passbands. And by adjusting the impedance of the microstrip line in the absorption network 2 4, four reflection zero points can be generated in the full frequency band, two of which are distributed outside the two passbands, effectively improving the out-of-band absorption level, and the other two are distributed at the filtering edge of the large bandwidth filter generated by the coupled microstrip line MWCL1, that is, the left edge of the lower passband and the right edge of the upper passband, improving the selectivity of signal transmission in the passband. At this point, after passing through the absorption network 1 3 and the absorption network 2 4, the reflected signals in the entire frequency band will be completely absorbed, realizing the full-band reflection-free dual-frequency filtering characteristics. Due to the loading of Figure 3 The fan-shaped resonant structure 2 shown has a low-pass response, so it will not affect the full-band reflectionless dual-band filtering characteristics of the low frequency band, but has a good suppression effect on the harmonics of the high frequency band. Finally, a circuit such as the following is loaded between the reflectionless dual-band bandpass filter circuit and the input / output port. Figure 3 The fan-shaped resonant structure 2 shown can construct a dual-band filter with wide stopband and non-reflection characteristics.
[0041] The following shows the filter completed according to the above working mechanism and related design guidance, and is simulated and verified.

The dual-band filter with wide-bandwidth and reflection-free characteristics of other frequency bands can be obtained by scaling in this embodiment.
[0045] Figure 9 It is the frequency response of the reflection-free dual-band bandpass filter obtained by CST MWS three-dimensional simulation software without loading the fan-shaped resonant structure 2. And the formula: absorption rate AR=100×(1-|S 11| 2 -|S 21 | 2 ) obtained the absorption efficiency curve of the absorption network for the signal in the entire frequency band. Figure 9 The center frequencies of the two frequency bands are 1.45 GHz and 2.55 GHz, respectively, corresponding to minimum insertion losses of 1.52 dB and 2.35 dB within the passbands. The reflection coefficient S11 is below -13 dB within the 0-4.75 GHz range, and the return losses within the two passbands are 17.1 dB and 14.3 dB, respectively. The four transmission poles within the bands are located at 1.36 GHz, 1.49 GHz, 2.46 GHz, and 2.65 GHz.

As can be seen from the figure, the reflectionless dual-band filter without the fan-shaped resonant structure 2 generates higher harmonics in the high-frequency band. However, after adding the fan-shaped resonant structure 2, the filter has a significant suppression effect on higher harmonics. In the range of 4.2 GHz to 16 GHz, the signal suppression is above 43.3 dB, ultimately achieving a high level of signal suppression of 6f0.

Figure 11 As can be seen from the figure, the center frequencies of the two passbands are 1.45 GHz and 2.55 GHz, respectively, and the minimum insertion losses within the two passbands are 1.77 dB and 2.52 dB, respectively. The reflection coefficient S11 is maintained below -12.2 dB in the 0-4 GHz range, achieving zero reflection across the entire frequency band. Furthermore, the reflected signal absorption rate exceeds 94% in the 0-1.27 GHz, 1.66-2.36 GHz, and 2.7-4 GHz bands.
