Network synthesis design of microwave acoustic wave filters

Abstract:

Non-transitory computer-readable media to perform a method for designing a multiband filter. The method includes generating an initial circuit structure comprising a desired number and type of circuit elements; generating an initial circuit design by mapping the frequency response requirements of the initial circuit structure into normalized space; generating an acoustic filter circuit design by transferring the initial filter circuit design; generating a pre-optimized circuit design by unmapping one or more circuit elements of the acoustic filter circuit design into real space and introducing parasitic effects; and communicating the pre-optimized circuit design to a filter optimizer that generates a final circuit design comprising a plurality of resonators, wherein a first resonator exhibits a high resonant frequency, a second resonator demonstrates a low resonant frequency and the difference between the low resonant frequency and the high resonant frequency is at least 1.25 times the average frequency separation of the resonators.
