摘要: A miniature tunable 3-pole filter is fabricated using coplanar waveguide (CPW) transmission-tines on glass substrate (C/sub r/ = 4.6, tan /spl delta/ 0.006) and an array of RF-MEMS varactors. The tuned a bias voltage 0-80 Volts. sim/3.6 mm long gives near ideal frequency response. tuning range 14% from 18.6 to 21.4 GHz was achieved, with constant fractional bandwidth 7.4 plusmn/ 0.1% mid-band insertion loss 3.85-4.15 dB.
