The article discusses the issues of minimizing intermodulation distortions arising in tunable bandpass filters made with the use of varicaps. It presents the analysis of the tunable filter circuits, on the basis of which we determined the circuits with minimum intermodulation distortions.

A technique for tunable filters with low insertion loss and narrow bandwidth is proposed in the form of comb-line structure. Both resonant capacitor with pin-diodes and resonant inductance in the tunable filter were analyzed and the main source of insertion loss was obtained. A series of filters with same pin-diodes, center frequency, absolute bandwidth and low return loss was simulated. The results showed that, by changing the values of the resonant capacitor and inductance, insertion loss of the filter can be greatly restricted. This technique will allow the design of tunable LC filters with low insertion loss and narrow bandwidth.
