[0049] Figure 3 Another structure schematic diagram of the filter circuit is provided in the embodiment of the utility model. On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 Optionally, the first adjusting module 121 comprises a first capacitor 123; and the first capacitor 123 is connected in parallel with the second resonator 120.

[0050] Specifically, in the signal processing process, the capacitor can effectively improve the response characteristic of the filter, and enhance the signal selectivity and noise suppression capability. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first capacitor 123 changes the bandwidth of the second resonator 120 by affecting the quality factor of the second resonator 120. Exemplarily, when the first capacitor 123 increases, the quality factor of the second resonator 120 decreases, thereby increasing the bandwidth of the second resonator 120. In addition, the first capacitor 123 can also affect the resonant frequency of the second resonator 120, thereby realizing fine adjustment of the center frequency of the second resonator 120.

[0051] The technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model adjusts the bandwidth and the center frequency of the third resonator by connecting the second capacitor in parallel to the third resonator, thereby improving the flexibility and the selectivity of the filter circuit.

[0052] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, continuing to refer to Figure 3 Optionally, the second adjusting module 131 comprises a second capacitor 133; and the second capacitor 133 is connected in parallel with the third resonator 130.

[0053] In the embodiment of the utility model, the second capacitor 133 changes the bandwidth of the third resonator 130 by affecting the quality factor of the third resonator 130. Exemplarily, when the second capacitor 133 increases, the quality factor of the third resonator 130 decreases, thereby increasing the bandwidth of the third resonator 130. In addition, the second capacitor 133 can also affect the resonant frequency of the third resonator 130, thereby realizing fine adjustment of the center frequency of the third resonator 130.

[0054] The technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model adjusts the bandwidth and the center frequency of the third resonator by connecting the second capacitor in parallel to the third resonator, thereby improving the flexibility and the selectivity of the filter circuit.

[0055] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, continuing to refer to Figure 3 Optionally, the first matching module 122 comprises a first inductor 124 and a third capacitor 125; the first inductor 124 is connected between the second end of the second resonator 120 and the ground end 160; and the third capacitor 125 is connected in parallel with the first inductor 124.

[0056] Specifically, the inductor is a component that stores magnetic energy, and when current flows through the inductor, a magnetic field is generated around it. The capacitor is a component that stores electrical energy, and its impedance to high-frequency signals is low, allowing high-frequency signals to pass through and suppressing low-frequency signals. In addition, the capacitor also causes the phase of the signal to advance, resulting in a phase difference between the signal passing through the capacitor and the input signal.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present application, the first inductor 124 and the third capacitor 125 are connected in parallel to form a resonant circuit, which exhibits low impedance near its resonant frequency, allowing the target signal to pass through effectively. In the out-of-band frequency range, the impedance of the inductor and the capacitor is high, thereby suppressing the transmission of out-of-band signals. Therefore, by adjusting the parameters of the first inductor 124 and the third capacitor 125, the operating frequency of the second resonator 120 can be controlled, and selective amplification or attenuation of the target frequency signal can be achieved. That is, the parallel connection of the first inductor 124 and the third capacitor 125 can significantly improve the suppression capability of the second resonator 120 to out-of-band signals, ensuring that only the target signal can be effectively transmitted, while non-target signals are suppressed.

[0059] In the embodiments of the present application, the second inductor 134 and the fourth capacitor 135 are connected in parallel to form a resonant circuit, which exhibits low impedance near its resonant frequency, allowing the target signal to pass through effectively. In the out-of-band frequency range, the impedance of the inductor and the capacitor is high, thereby suppressing the transmission of out-of-band signals. Therefore, by adjusting the parameters of the second inductor 134 and the fourth capacitor 135, the operating frequency of the third resonator 130 can be controlled, and selective amplification or attenuation of the target frequency signal can be achieved. That is, the parallel connection of the second inductor 134 and the fourth capacitor 135 can significantly improve the suppression capability of the third resonator 130 to out-of-band signals, ensuring that only the target signal can be effectively transmitted, while non-target signals are suppressed.

[0060] Based on the above embodiments, further referring to Figure 3 Optionally, the first resonator 110, the second resonator 120, and the third resonator 130 all include a surface acoustic wave resonator.

[0061] Specifically, a surface acoustic wave resonator (SAW resonator) is a resonator that utilizes the propagation of surface acoustic waves in a medium. Its working principle is to generate acoustic waves on the surface of a material, which propagate on the surface of the material and interact with the structure of the resonator, thereby achieving frequency selectivity. SAW resonators have the advantages of high operating frequency, small size, low power consumption, and strong stability, and are widely used in wireless communication, radar systems, sensors, audio processing, and other fields.

[0062] In the embodiments of the present application, the SAW resonator can work in a high frequency range of tens of megahertz to thousands of megahertz, and also has good frequency selectivity, which can accurately select and amplify signals of specific frequencies while suppressing out-of-band signals. Therefore, the first resonator 110, the second resonator 120 and the third resonator 130 all contain SAW resonators to improve the performance of the filter circuit.

[0063] The technical scheme provided by the embodiments of the present application uses SAW resonators to enable the filter circuit to process signals of higher frequency and higher bandwidth, not only optimizing the performance of the filter circuit, improving its reliability and adaptability, but also effectively meeting the requirements of modern communication technology for high performance, high integration and low power consumption.
