On the applications of a compact autonomous acoustic recorder

A number of acoustic A compact acoustic recorder, primarily designed for underwater noise monitoring, is presented in this paper. The Self-Register Hydrophone has been used in several occasions during the past three years, in underwater noise monitoring activities. However, this kind of device also find application in other areas such as array processing and passive acoustic monitoring of marine mammals. An overview on the application of the Self-Register Hydrophone is given herein.

Compact dielectric-filled waveguide filters and diplexers

This paper presents electromagnetic simulations of dielectric-filled rectangular waveguide bandpass filter structures with microstrip to waveguide transitions as well as a diplexer based on such filters for modern wireless systems. The two bandpass filters have been designed and simulated at centre frequencies of 11.85 and 14.25 GHz, respectively. A significant size reduction is achieved through dielectric filling.

Compact high linearity switchable dual-mode microstrip bandpass filters

A compact highly linear microstrip dual-mode electronically switchable filter is presented. The key characteristics of the dual-mode switchable filter are investigated and described. A second order filter design procedure is outlined to facilitate the realisation of Butterworth and Chebyshev functions. The proposed filter was built and tested with NXP pin diode model BAP65-03. The measured and simulated results are in good agreement. The measured insertion loss in the ON state was 3.0 dB the isolation in the OFF state was 45 dB at the centre frequency. An evaluation of filter distortion is presented for digitally modulated 16 QAM and QPSK signals.

Compact filters using metal-dielectric inserts

A novel filter based on e-plane metal-dielectric insert in rectangular waveguide is proposed. Properties of the structure containing metallic septa, C- and I-shaped resonators placed in waveguide are investigated. Pseudo-elliptic cross-coupled filter with direct source-load coupling is designed, simulated and fabricated. Experimental results are presented to prove feasibility of the filter. Significant size reduction is achieved.

Ultra compact pseudo-elliptic inline waveguide bandpass filters using bypass coupling

This paper presents an ultra compact waveguide bandpass filter that exhibits a pseudo-elliptic response. The transmission zero created in the upper stopband to form a rapid roll off is produced through a bypass coupling with higher order modes. A 3rd order filter is designed at the centre frequency of 9.4 GHz with a 5.3% fractional bandwidth. The proposed structure's size is 38% smaller than one of a 3rd order E-plane extracted pole filter with comparable response. Additionally, this configuration allows larger span of different bandwidths. The filter has been fabricated and tested using E-plane waveguide technology, which has benefits of being inexpensive and having mass producible capabilities. Measurements of such a fabricated filter validate the simulated results.

Ultra compact inline E-plane waveguide extracted pole bandpass filters

This letter presents an ultra compact extracted pole E-plane filter. The proposed structure can achieve up to 65% size reduction in comparison with a standard extracted pole filter designed at 9.5 GHz centre frequency with a 3% fractional bandwidth. The filter has been fabricated and tested using E-plane waveguide technology. Measurements on a fabricated filter confirm the accuracy of the design method.

Compact tunable bandstop filters using defected microstrip structure for multi-standard wireless systems

A novel compact tunable bandstop filter using Defected Microstrip Structure (DMS) is presented in this paper. The structure utilizes a modified T shaped DMS which helps in miniaturization of the filter. To verify the concept, one such filter was simulated, designed, fabricated and tested. Measurements on a fabricated tunable filter confirm the accuracy of the design procedure. The tuning range of 20% is achieved, ranging from 2.26 GHz to 2.747 GHz. Tuning is achieved by using NXP BB179 varactor diode. A nonlinear distortion evaluation in a tunable filter was experimentally verified. Experimental verification shows the filter is highly linear.

Compact, frequency reconfigurable, printed monopole antenna

This paper proposes a possible implementation of a compact printed monopole antenna, useful to operate in UMTS and WLAN bands. In order to accomplish that, a miniaturization technique based on the application of chip inductors is used in conjunction with frequency reconfiguration capability. The chip inductors change the impedance response of the monopole, allowing to reduce the resonant frequency. In order to be able to operate the antenna in these two different frequencies, an antenna reconfiguration technique based on PIN diodes is applied. This procedure allows the change of the active form of the antenna leading to a shift in the resonant frequency. The prototype measurements show good agreement with the simulation results.
