ABSTRACT:
A precisely controlled bandpass/bandstop filter is fabricated by coupling open circuit stubs to a transmission line. The first and second stubs are designed to resonate with the third stub at the center frequency of the passband. Both the first and third stubs are one quarter wavelength long at the center frequency of the stopband, thereby attenuating transmission line signals within this band. The second stub is of a predetermined dimension to attenuate signals at a flyback frequency which occurs within the stopband as a result of interreaction between the stubs.
In a particular application, the filter may be used to significantly enhance the signal to noise characteristic of the mixer portion of a radio receiver.
