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.

This paper presents design approach for realizing multilayer End Coupled Bandpass Filter (ECBPF) using low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology at TMRND's LTCC Lab. Design method for the ECBPF is based on the coupled-resonator filter which was realized in LTCC multilayer substrate and operating at the center frequency of 42GHz. Three samples of EC BPF have been designed, simulated, fabricated and investigated in terms of performance and structure size.This multilayer ECBPF were fabricated in the 8 layers LTCC Ferro A6S materials with dielectric constant of 5.8, loss tangent of 0.002 and metallization of gold. The measured insertion loss for ECBPF was 2.43dB and return loss was 22.81dB at the center frequency at 42GHz. The overall size of the fabricated filter was 6.0 mm x 2.5 mm x 0.77 mm.

Digital band-pass filters play a very important role in instrument design. For some special applications, such as corrosion inspection of buried oil or gas pipeline, more than one band-pass filter with different center frequencies are needed to process different frequency signals. FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) are widely used in these applications because of its high compute velocity and flexibility. For low cost and high reliability purposes, it is expected that one digital filter with a fixed configuration parameters can serve as multi different center frequency digital filter. In this paper a design method is proposed to realize two different center frequency band-pass filters which have the same filtering effect. Through analysis of design process for FIR band-pass filter, it’s easy to find that if the ratios (filter’ sample rate of input data to its cut-off frequency) of two filters keep equal, the normalized frequency will also equal. Thus according to this, two band-pass filters can have the same coefficients only if they have the same ratio of sample rate to cut-off frequency. This relationship is discussed here and MATLAB experiment is used to prove its effectiveness. This method is already used to design filters in pipeline current mapper instrument to inspect pipeline corrosion.

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.
