[0026] Embodiment one

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 Embodiment one of the present application is: Figure 1As shown in the figure, a topology structure includes two first microstrip lines 1, two second microstrip lines 2, four third microstrip lines 3, four first open-circuit stubs 4 and four second open-circuit stubs 5; the two first microstrip lines 1 are horizontally placed and connected, one end of one of the first microstrip lines 1 is connected to the input end 6 of two first open-circuit stubs 4, and one end of the other first microstrip line 1 is connected to the output end 7 of the other two first open-circuit stubs 4; the two second microstrip lines 2 are vertically placed and connected, and the connection positions of the two second microstrip lines 2 coincide with the connection positions of the two first microstrip lines 1; one end of each of the second microstrip lines 2 is connected to two third microstrip lines 3, the third microstrip lines 3 are horizontally placed, and one end of the third microstrip line 3 away from the second microstrip line 2 is connected to the second open-circuit stub 5, and the second open-circuit stub 5 is vertically placed, and the topology structure is both left-right symmetric and up-down symmetric.

[0028] The electrical length of the first open-circuit stub 4 is equal to the electrical length of the first microstrip line, and the electrical length of the first microstrip line is 0.25λ, where λ is the corresponding wavelength at the center frequency of the band-stop filter based on the topology structure. The sum of the electrical length of the second microstrip line 2, the electrical length of the third microstrip line 3 and the electrical length of the second open-circuit stub 5 is 0.5λ.

[0029] In combination with Figure 1 and Figure 2 Optionally, the width of the first microstrip line 1 is smaller than the width of the third microstrip line 3, and the width of the third microstrip line 3 is smaller than the width of the second microstrip line 2.

[0030] The first open-circuit stub 4 has a bending part, and the presence of the bending part can more reasonably arrange the first open-circuit stub 4. In this embodiment, the first open-circuit stub 4 is in the shape of L as a whole, and includes a first stub 41 and a second stub 42, and the length direction of the first stub 41 is consistent with the length direction of the first microstrip line 1.

[0031] The characteristic impedance of the first microstrip line 1 is equal to the characteristic impedance of the first open-circuit stub 4, and the characteristic impedance of the first microstrip line 1 is Z1; the characteristic impedance of the second open-circuit stub 5 is equal to the characteristic impedance of the third microstrip line 3, and the characteristic impedance of the third microstrip line 3 is twice the characteristic impedance of the second microstrip line 2, and the characteristic impedance of the second microstrip line 2 is Z2. Therefore, the band-stop filter based on the topology structure has only two design parameters, i.e., Z1 and Z2. In order to ensure high stopband isolation of the filter and low loss and flatness of the passband, the topology structure parameter setting principle is to make Z1 as large as possible and Z2 as small as possible.

[0032] The embodiment also provides a broadband band-stop filter, comprising a circuit board, wherein the circuit board is provided with the topology structure.

[0033] Simulation example

[0034] A circuit board is obtained, wherein the length of the circuit board is 27.0 mm, the width is 15 mm, the thickness is 0.813 mm, the dielectric constant is 3.38, and the dielectric loss is 0.0022.

[0035] The circuit board is provided with a microstrip structure, wherein the microstrip structure is the topology structure, and the circuit layout diagram of the microstrip structure is as shown in Figure 2 .

[0036] The physical length of the first branch of the first open-circuit stub is denoted as l 1H , l 1H = 8.95 mm.

[0037] The physical length of the second branch of the first open-circuit stub is denoted as l 1V , l 1V = 2.0 mm.

[0038] The physical width of the first open-circuit stub is denoted as w1, w1 = 0.1 mm.

[0039] The physical length of the first microstrip line is denoted as l2, l2 = 10.85 mm.

[0040] The physical width of the first microstrip line is denoted as w2, w2 = 0.1 mm.

[0041] The physical length of the second microstrip line is denoted as l3, l3 = 5.8 mm.

[0042] The physical width of the second microstrip line is denoted as w3, w3 = 0.7 mm.

[0043] The physical length of the third microstrip line is denoted as l4, l4 = 11.35 mm.

[0044] The physical width of the third microstrip line is denoted as w4, w4 = 0.35 mm.

[0045] The physical length of the second open-circuit stub is denoted as l5, l5 = 4.1 mm.

[0046] The physical width of the second open-circuit stub is denoted as w5, w5 = 0.35 mm.

[0047] It should be noted that in the simulation example, the sum of l3, l4 and l5 is less than twice of l2 because in the schematic diagram of the topology, the resonators are connected by points, while in the layout diagram, the resonators are connected by surfaces with certain width. The difference between the point and the surface is one of the reasons for the difference between the theoretical value of the topology and the actual layout design value. In addition, in the topology, the resonators are independent and in different spaces, and there is no coupling phenomenon. However, in the layout, all the resonators are in the same space, and there is a coupling problem. Whether there is coupling is the second reason for the difference between the theoretical value of the topology and the actual layout design value.

[0048] Generally speaking, in the topology, the equal electrical length is specified, and in the actual layout, a small difference exists in the corresponding physical length to ensure the optimal simulation result of the filter. Although the equal relationship in the topology can achieve the basic performance of the filter based on the topology, it is not the optimal filter performance. Generally, the lower the working frequency of the filter is, the smaller the difference between the size parameter in the actual layout and the value predicted by the topology will be.

[0049] Figure 3 The S parameter diagram of the simulation example of the wideband band-stop filter is shown in Fig. 6. Figure 3 It can be seen that the isolation of the wideband band-stop filter is greater than 20 dB in the stop band range of 1.644 GHz to 7.138 GHz, the center frequency of the stop band is 4.391 GHz, the absolute bandwidth is 5.494 GHz, and the relative bandwidth is 125.1%. In addition, there are three transmission zeros in the stop band, which are located at 2.085 GHz, 4.483 GHz and 6.842 GHz. There are two pass bands beside the stop band, and there are five transmission poles in the pass band, which are located at 0, 0.368 GHz, 7.943 GHz, 8.762 GHz and 9.768 GHz. The three transmission zeros and the five transmission poles not only ensure the high isolation characteristics of the stop band and the low insertion loss and flatness of the pass band, but also ensure the high selectivity of the band-stop filter sideband.

[0050] The above is only an optional embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structural transformation made by using the content of the present application specification and drawings, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
