This paper presents two novel electronically tunable universal filter configurations employing a single new active device, namely the current follower transconductance amplifier (CFTA). The first proposed current-mode universal filter with single input and three outputs consists of one CFTA, one virtually grounded resistor and two grounded capacitors. It can simultaneously realize low-pass, ban...

The development of numerical techniques now permits us to analyze complex structures such as dielectric resonator filters and planar passive elements for coplanar monolithic microwave integrated circuits. In this paper, we describe a novel method for designing dielectric resonator filters. Then a Chebychev band pass filter is designed by coaxially placing high-Q TM01Q dielectric resonators ...

Transmission line structure based on substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) loaded with new structure of octagonal complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) has been proposed. The SIW loaded CSRR pair is used in dual/quad octagonal structure to design dual band pass filter (single and double pole) with improved performance characteristics. The proposed band pass filter (BPF) yields two passbands ...

This paper presents a novel coplanar waveguide (CPW) dual pass band and triple pass band filter using the split-modes of the loaded stub square loop resonators. With the CPW feeding line, two micro strip stub resonators built on the rear sides are used to suppress resonance. We have designed our filter on the FR4 substrate (permittivity = 4. 4 and loss tangent=0. 02) with 20x50mm square and thi...

C l c3 Abstract-In this paper, a design method is described for low-sensitivity narrow-band band-pass switched-capacitor filters (SCF's) using a pseudo-2-path principle and a capacitor-error-free voltage inversion. The proposed method is based on the low-pass to high-pass transformation using voltage inversion, the pseudo2-path principle, the capacitance-ratio reduction technique and a very low...

This paper deals with a design method of the analog all-pass filter designated for equalization of the group delay frequency response of the analog filter. This method is based on usage of evolutionary algorithm, the Differential Evolution algorithm in particular. We are able to design such equalizers to be obtained equal-ripple group delay frequency response in the pass-band of the low-pass fi...

This paper proposes a further generalization of the fractional-order filters whose limiting form is that second-order filter. new filter class can also be regarded as superset recently reported power-law filters. An optimal approach incorporating constraints restricts real part roots numerator and denominator polynomials proposed rational approximant to negative values formulated. Consequently,...

A second order voltage mode tunable universal filter is presented. The voltage mode filter is based on dual output second generation current controlled current conveyor (DOCCCII). The filter is capable of realizing high pass (HP), low pass (LP), band pass (BP), notch pass (NP) and all pass (AP) responses in voltage mode (VM). The filter employs only two capacitors and hence enjoys minimum compo...

This paper presents a method for the design of two-channel quadrature mirror filter (QMF) banks with linear phase in frequency domain. Low-pass prototype filter of the QMF bank is implemented using polyphase decomposition. Prototype filter coefficients are optimized to minimize an objective function using eigenvalueeigenvector approach without matrix inversion. The objective function is formula...

ABSTRACT A new current-mode universal active-RC filter is proposed. The proposed circuit is based on a new universal passive filter topology. Two Fully Differential Current Conveyors (FDCCII) are used to construct a universal active-RC filter from this passive filter. The FDCCII based proposed filter has only grounded resistances and capacitors as the passive elements. The circuit simultaneousl...
