摘要
A generalized lumped element modeling for electrically and magnetically dual-tunable coupled microstrip filters is established through the introduction of the coupling factor which stands for coupling between magnetoelectric layered structure and the input/output microstrip. Then, the lumped element modeling for an existing filter is established and used to predict the electric and magnetic tunability of the filter that manifests as a shift in pass-band. The results have a good consistency with the experimental data and the electromagnetic simulation results in quality and quantity. Then the effects of applied electric field, microstrip's size, substrate's size, and the ferrite-piezoelectric layered structure's size on the filter performance are analyzed by the lumped element modeling. The predicted results show that the performance of the filter can be effectively improved through the increase of microstrip's length and the structure's thickness in a certain range, or the decrease of structure's width and length and the distance between the microstrip and the structure appropriately.
