Frequency Adjustable Narrow-and Moderate Bandwidth Filters with Wide Tuning Range

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution

Abstract

This work presents a compact (∼25.3-34.0°) mechanically reconfigurable filter capable of wide tuning range (∼30%) maintaining a stable fractional bandwidth. A common single tuning mechanism simplifies the design. The proposed technology is low-cost and implemented with low complexity. The filter maintains high Q factor across the range. Two distinct designs demonstrate the ability to implement this technology for narrow-band as well as wide-band designs. Experimental results are reported on several prototype filters. This solution augments the current state-of-the-art for narrow and moderate bandwidth adjustable filters.
