A novel terahertz (THz) waves band-pass filter with the center frequency of 880 GHz and low insertion loss using microstrip line hairpin resonators is introduced. The properties of this filter are investigated by finite element method (FEM) simulations. The numerical result shows that the filter has a 3 dB bandwidth from 865 GHz to 892 GHz and has 80 GHz bandwidth better than -10 dB. Resonance frequency shifts of the filter covered by dielectric materials of different permittivity and thickness are calculated, which shows that this type of filter is suitable for detecting the properties of overlaid dielectric materials.

Envelope analysis based on the combination of complex Morlet wavelet and Kurtogram have advantages of automatic calculation of the center frequency and bandwidth of required band-pass filter. However, there are some drawbacks in the traditional algorithm, which include that the filter bandwidth is not -3dB bandwidth and the analysis frequency band covered by the filter-banks are inconsistent at different levels. A new algorithm is introduced in this paper. Through it, both optimal center frequency and bandwidth of band-pass filter in the envelop analysis can be obtained adaptively. Meanwhile, it ensures that the filters in the filter-banks are overlapped at the point of -3dB bandwidth and the consistency of frequency band that the filter-banks covered.

A reconfigurable band-pass filter with switchable bandwidth, for wireless applications is demonstrated using a dual-mode microstrip square-loop resonator. The proposed filter has been designed on Rogers RO4003C and achieves switchable bandwidth by changing the length of two tuning stubs with the implementation of two strategically placed p-i-n diodes as switching elements. The filter was designed with a center frequency of 2.4 GHz and the two distinct operation states have bandwidths, 113 MHz (4.8%) with an insertion loss of 1.2 dB and 35 MHz (1.5%) with an insertion loss of 1.5 dB. The physical size of the fabricated reconfigurable filter including the implementation of the DC bias lines is comparable to the size of a conventional filter.

This paper describes some of the recent results of an ongoing U.S. Army research program examining the electronic behavior of hyperelastic stretchable capacitor, resistor, and inductor networks for which the conductor material employed is stretchable. As with traditional rigid analog components, stretchable electronic components exhibit frequency-dependant behavior. Unlike their rigid counterparts, stretchable electronic components may also exhibit dramatic strain-dependent behavior. In this way stretchable circuit networks may be viewed as controllable spatio-temporal filters. Resistance, capacitance, and inductance all change to varying degrees depending on the specific set of spatio-temporal inputs. These variations may be harnessed to create an adaptive circuit element that is controllable. This paper describes the results of integrating stretchable components into a tunable band-pass filter. Center frequency, bandwidth, and gain can be varied in a controllable way by varying the capacitance or resistance of specific circuit elements by stretching them. Biaxially stretchable components are described that are subjected to equibiaxial strain-states as high as 100% area strain. We examine the influence that the type of compliant conductor has on tunable circuit properties and on control authority.

Array induction logging tools (AILT) detects the stratum conductivity based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, as a result, the signal of the amplitude using the AILT is in microvolt level. The small-signal is always drowned by noise at high-temperature and high-pressure condition. In order to collect the weak signal accurately, we propose a design method of signal modulator circuits based on the principle of differential amplifier and active band-pass filter with second band limitless gain and multi-path negative feedback. First, make the induction signal obtained from the coil two stages amplification. Then Execute two-order band-pass filter to the enlarged signal. At last, process the filtered signal by the backward circuits. Simulating the circuits by Pspice16.3, The result of simulation indicated that the gain relative error of preamplifier is less than 1% and the center frequency relative error of band filter is less than 4%. These data suggest that the relative error of the design circuits is less than routine instrument by 5%. So the Simulation verifies the feasibility of the signal modulator circuit.

A high-temperature superconducting (HTS) band-pass filter centered frequency at 127.5MHz was successfully designed and developed. The HTS filter is 14-pole, adopting compact symmetrical dual-spiral resonators. The filter was fabricated on a 3-inch-diameter 0.5-mm-thick LaAlO3 wafer with double-sided DyBa2Cu3O7 thin films. Through the low temperature test, the insertion loss of the HTS filter is under 0.1dB, the bandwidth is 20 MHz, the return loss is better than-22dB and the out-of-band rejection is greater than 80dB. The filters measurements agree well with the simulation.
