[0033] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, the first embodiment of the present utility model is:

[0034] A topology structure mainly consists of a parallel line, eight microstrip lines and two open branches. Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, it includes parallel lines, a first microstrip line, a second microstrip line, a third microstrip line, a fourth microstrip line, a fifth microstrip line, a sixth microstrip line, a seventh microstrip line, an eighth microstrip line, a first open branch, a second open branch, an input end and an output end. The parallel lines are composed of a first transmission line and a second transmission line arranged in parallel. The first end of the first transmission line is sequentially connected to the first microstrip line and the input end, the second end of the first transmission line is sequentially connected to the second microstrip line, the third microstrip line, the fourth microstrip line and the first open branch, the first end of the second transmission line is sequentially connected to the fifth microstrip line, the sixth microstrip line, the seventh microstrip line and the second open branch, and the second end of the second transmission line is sequentially connected to the eighth microstrip line and the output end. The first end of the first transmission line and the first end of the second transmission line are located on the same side, and the second end of the first transmission line and the second end of the second transmission line are located on the same side.

[0035] The parallel lines, the third microstrip line, the sixth microstrip line, the first open branch and the second open branch are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the first microstrip line, the second microstrip line, the fourth microstrip line, the fifth microstrip line, the seventh microstrip line and the eighth microstrip line.

[0036] The second microstrip line, the third microstrip line, the fourth microstrip line and the first open branch are distributed in a "mouth" shape, and the fifth microstrip line, the sixth microstrip line, the seventh microstrip line and the second open branch are distributed in a "mouth" shape.

[0037] The electrical length of the parallel lines is 0.25λ; the electrical length of the first microstrip line is equal to the electrical length of the eighth microstrip line, the electrical length of the second microstrip line is equal to the electrical length of the fifth microstrip line, the electrical length of the third microstrip line is equal to the electrical length of the sixth microstrip line, the electrical length of the fourth microstrip line is equal to the electrical length of the seventh microstrip line, and the electrical length of the first open branch is equal to the electrical length of the second open branch; the sum of the electrical lengths of the first microstrip line, the second microstrip line, the third microstrip line, the fourth microstrip line, and the first open branch is 0.25λ; λ is the wavelength corresponding to the center frequency of the stopband between the two passbands of the dual-passband filter based on the topology structure. The sum of the electrical lengths of the second microstrip line, the third microstrip line, the fourth microstrip line, and the first open branch is greater than the electrical length of the first microstrip line.

[0038] The odd-mode characteristic impedance of the parallel line is Z oo , the even-mode characteristic impedance of the parallel line is Z oe The characteristic impedance of the first microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the second microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the third microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the fourth microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the fifth microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the sixth microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the seventh microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the eighth microstrip line, the characteristic impedance of the first open branch and the characteristic impedance of the second open branch are equal and are all Z1.

[0039] Since this topology is equivalent to a symmetrical structure, its transmission poles can be obtained using odd-even mode analysis. In order to more easily calculate the transmission poles of this topology, we first assume that the sum of the electrical lengths of the second microstrip line, the third microstrip line, the fourth microstrip line, and the first short-circuit stub is much greater than the electrical length of the first microstrip line. In this case, the odd-mode form of this topology is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the electrical length of the odd-mode transmission line is a quarter wavelength corresponding to the center frequency of the stop band between the two pass bands of the dual-passband filter based on the topology, i.e., 0.25λ, and the characteristic impedance of the odd-mode transmission line is Z oo .

[0040] When Y ino= 0, it can be concluded that the topology has two transmission poles. When f0 is the center frequency of the stop band between the two pass bands, the frequencies corresponding to the two odd-mode transmission poles are:

[0041]

[0042] The even mode form of this topology is as follows Figure 3 As shown, the electrical length of the even-mode transmission line is a quarter wavelength corresponding to the stopband center frequency between the two passbands of the dual-passband filter based on the topology, i.e., 0.25λ, and the characteristic impedance of the even-mode transmission line is Z oe .

[0043] When Y ine = 0, it can be concluded that the topology has two even-mode transmission poles. When f0 is the center frequency of the stop band between the two pass bands, the frequencies corresponding to the two even-mode transmission poles are:

[0044]

[0045] For this topology, the transmission zero can be calculated using the following formula:

[0046]

[0047] After calculation, it can be concluded that this topology has three transmission zeros, and the frequencies corresponding to the three transmission zeros are:

[0048] f z1 =0

[0049] f z2 =f0

[0050] f z3 =2f0

[0051] From the above analysis, we can see that the filter based on this topology has two odd-mode transmission poles, three even-mode transmission poles and three transmission zeros. oo , Z oe and the value of Z1, the relative position of the transmission zero pole, that is, f z1 <f ep1 <f op1 <f2<f op2 <f ep2 <f z3 , will not change. Therefore, based on this topology, a dual-passband filter can be designed with two transmission poles in each of the two passbands to ensure its in-band flatness, a transmission zero below the first passband edge and above the fourth passband edge to ensure high selectivity, and a transmission zero between the second and third passband edges to ensure high isolation.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 4-6 As shown, the second embodiment of the present utility model is:

[0053] A wide dual-passband filter comprises a circuit board and the topological structure described in Example 1, wherein the topological structure is arranged on the circuit board, and the circuit board has a dielectric constant of 3.38, a dielectric loss of 0.0022, a thickness of 0.813 mm, and a size of 7.6 mm*6.8 mm. Figure 4 and 5 FIG. 1 is a layout diagram of the wide dual-passband filter of this embodiment. In the figure, 10 represents the input end, and 50 represents the output end.

[0054] The specific parameters on the circuit board are set as follows:

[0055] l P =6.4mm, l P represents the physical length of the parallel line 30;

[0056] s P =0.1mm,s P represents the distance between the first transmission line 301 and the second transmission line 302;

[0057] w P =0.1mm, w P represents the physical width of the first transmission line 301 and the physical width of the second transmission line 302;

[0058] l1=1.5 mm, where l1 represents the physical length of the first microstrip line 20 and the physical length of the eighth microstrip line 27;

[0059] l2=1.8 mm, where l2 represents the physical length of the second microstrip line 21 and the physical length of the fifth microstrip line 24;

[0060] l3=2.7 mm, where l3 represents the physical length of the third microstrip line 22 and the physical length of the sixth microstrip line 25;

[0061] l4=1 mm, where l4 represents the physical length of the fourth microstrip line 23 and the physical length of the seventh microstrip line 26;

[0062] l5=1.3 mm, where l5 represents the physical length of the first open branch 40 and the physical length of the second open branch 41;

[0063] w1=0.1mm, where w1 represents the physical width of the first microstrip line 20, the physical width of the second microstrip line 21, the physical width of the third microstrip line 22, the physical width of the fourth microstrip line 23, the physical width of the fifth microstrip line 24, the physical width of the sixth microstrip line 25, the physical width of the seventh microstrip line 26, the physical width of the eighth microstrip line 27, the physical width of the first open branch 40, and the physical width of the second open branch 41.

[0064] The simulation results of the wide dual-channel filter of this embodiment are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in the figure, within the first passband, the impedance bandwidth with a reflection coefficient less than -10dB ranges from 2.89 to 4.43GHz, the passband center frequency is 3.66GHz, the passband absolute bandwidth is 1.54GHz, and the passband relative bandwidth is 42.1%. Within the second passband, the impedance bandwidth with a reflection coefficient less than -10dB ranges from 9.41 to 10.75GHz, the passband center frequency is 10.08GHz, the passband absolute bandwidth is 1.34GHz, and the passband relative bandwidth is 13.3%. Bandwidth simulations of these two passbands indicate that the dual-passband filter based on this topology is a wide dual-passband filter. Within the first passband, the maximum insertion loss is 0.5dB; within the second passband, the maximum insertion loss is 0.62dB. This indicates that the wide dual-passband filter based on this topology has low insertion loss characteristics.

[0065] In addition, there are two transmission poles in the first passband, located at 3.25 and 4.01 GHz, and two transmission poles in the second passband, located at 9.79 and 10.45 GHz. These four transmission poles ensure passband flatness.

[0066] There are three transmission zeros in the stopband, located at 0, 6.95, and 14.53 GHz. These three transmission zeros ensure high isolation of the wide dual-passband filter.

[0067] In summary, the topology structure proposed in the present invention can be used to design a wide dual-passband filter. The wide dual-passband filter designed based on this topology structure has the advantage of miniaturization.

[0068] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
