摘要
A new type of varactor-tuned microstrip bandpass filter (BPF) based on a single 1/2 lambda resonator is investigated. The proposed resonator is composed of a transmission line with both ends short-ended and two varactors inserted symmetrically in the middle section. The variation of coupling coefficient can be controlled by using an inductor. With the proposed structure, it is easy to adjust the external quality factor of the filter and to control the bandwidth. Extra dc-block capacitors for the input and output ports are not necessary because the design of the proposed tunable 1/2 lambda resonator makes the varactor act as both a frequency tuning element and a dc-block circuit. The proposed BPF is found to have the advantages of compact size, low insertion loss, large tuning range and good linearity.
