AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing base station equipment, filters and antenna units are complex in structure, heavy in weight, and costly, and are difficult to assemble. They also have poor EMC performance, especially in AAS products with high integration requirements, which pose a PIM risk.

Method used

Using plastic material as the base material, a metal layer is formed on the base material of the filter and antenna unit through electroplating technology, realizing the integration of EMC cover and key components, reducing independent parts and connectors, and forming a highly integrated filter and antenna unit.

Benefits of technology

This has enabled the reduction of the size and weight of filters and antenna units, reduced assembly costs, improved EMC and PIM performance, and simplified the production process.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a filter unit comprising a cavity filter comprising a hollow main body, an inner side surface of the main body defining a closed cavity for accommodating a resonating element, the main body being formed by joining a filter base part and a filter cover part covering the filter base part, wherein an outer side surface of the filter base part or the filter cover part facing a radio board to be electrically coupled with the cavity filter is metallized such that a metal layer formed thereby is configured as an electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) cover for shielding the radio board from electromagnetic interference. The present disclosure further relates to an antenna filter unit comprising the above filter unit and a radio unit comprising the above filter unit or antenna filter unit.
