Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a balanced bandpass filter, specifically a balanced linear phase bandpass filter with differential-mode non-reflection characteristics. Background Technology
[0002] Balanced circuits play a crucial role in modern wireless communication systems. Compared to unbalanced single-port input / output circuits, balanced circuits can efficiently suppress ambient noise and noise generated by internal active components, thus exhibiting superior electromagnetic compatibility characteristics. Various RF microwave devices, such as filters, mixers, and power amplifiers, are widely designed with balanced topologies. With the rapid development of integrated circuits, the demand for balanced devices will become even more urgent. Balanced filters possess filtering characteristics for differential-mode signal inputs while effectively suppressing common-mode noise. While balanced filters can be easily constructed using a single-port filter and two baluns, their size is enormous. Therefore, designing balanced filters as a single device without adding additional baluns is crucial and has broad application prospects.
[0003] Conventional filters are reflective filters, which achieve filtering by reflecting the energy of unwanted frequency components back to the signal source, thus achieving frequency selectivity. In nonlinear systems, the reflected echo signal mixes with the existing signal, generating numerous interference signals and significantly impacting system performance. To mitigate the negative effects of conventional filters, an attenuator is typically cascaded before the filter, followed by an amplifier, to minimize the impact of reflected signals. Non-reflective filters address the problems of conventional filters by effectively absorbing out-of-band signals through resistors and dissipating them as heat, reducing the reflected energy of out-of-band signals and improving overall system performance.
[0004] When evaluating the performance of a transmission system, it is usually necessary to analyze both its frequency domain and time domain characteristics simultaneously. The frequency domain characteristics analyzed include amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics. A good transmission system should not only have a flat amplitude-frequency characteristic but also a linear phase-frequency characteristic, that is, a flat group delay characteristic. With the continuous improvement of research and application of negative group delay technology, the negative group delay generated by the negative group delay circuit within a specific frequency band can be used to compensate for the bulges in the filter group delay fluctuation curve using external equalization design methods, without increasing the overall system delay, and achieving linear phase bandpass filtering characteristics.
[0005] However, most existing balanced filters focus on broadening the filter bandwidth, enhancing filter selectivity, and improving out-of-band rejection and common-mode rejection capabilities. Research on balanced non-reflective filters or balanced linear-phase filters is scarce. Therefore, it is of great significance to study balanced bandpass filters that achieve both common-mode rejection and non-reflective filtering, as well as the functional extension of linear phase. In view of this, it is indeed necessary to propose a balanced linear-phase bandpass filter with differential-mode non-reflective characteristics. Summary of the Invention
