A reconfigurable bandpass filter for RF/microwave multifunctional systems

Authors:

Abstract
A network prototype suitable for reconfigurable filters with imaginary-axis transmission zeros is presented. The prototype is synthesized using classical cascade synthesis. Reconfiguration of the transmission zeros is implemented entirely by tunable capacitors. The measured performance of a narrow-band reconfigurable bandpass filter realized in a planar combline using varactor diodes demonstrates the principle.
