A parte mais difícil no momento de projetar este tipo de filtros é encontrar as dimensões certas da estrutura, sejam as alturas dos ressonadores ou as dimensões da estrutura dos capacitores de acoplamento. Esta tese presenta um estudo feito neste tipo de filtro e propõe um procedimento analítico-empírico com formulas para projeção para facilitar a construção do arranjo de ressonadores e a estrutura dos capacitores de acoplamento. Este procedimento pode ser extrapolado para filtros passa-faixa com um maior número de ressonadores. As formulas de projeção permitem uma transição fácil do modelo circuital ao modelo eletromagnético do filtro. Isto deve-se com as formulas é fácil calcular os comprimentos dos ressonadores e os valores das capacitâncias requeridas para acoplar corretamente os ressonadores. A comparação entre as simulações no modelo circuital e o entorno eletromagnético mostram que as formulas de projeção propostas são uma ótima primeira aproximação para a projeção deste filtro / Abstract: Bandpass filters made with ceramic coaxial resonators are a kind of filter technology that provides high performance features like high selectivity, high power handling, excellent rejection, low passband insertion loss, etc. and given that the resonators are made of with materials of high dielectric constant it considerably reduces their size, consequently, all the electric characteristics mentioned before are "compacted" in a small shielded structure which make these filters suitable for applications where small sized devices are a necessity. The most difficult task when projecting this kind of filters is to find the correct dimensions of the structure, either the length of the resonators or the dimensions of the coupling capacitors structure. This thesis presents a study on this type of filter and propose an analytical-empirical procedure with design formulas to facilitate construction of the resonators array and the coupling capacitors structure. This procedure can be extrapolated to bandpass filters with a greater number of resonators. The design formulas allow an easy transition from the circuital model to the electromagnetic model of the filter. This is because they easily allow to compute the length of the resonators and the value of the capacitances required for a correctly resonators coupling. The comparison between the simulations in the circuital and the electromagnetic environment show that the proposed design formulas are a good first approximation for this filter design / Mestrado / Telecomunicações e Telemática / Mestre em Engenharia Elétrica

In this study, a novel and systematic methodology for the design and optimization of lowpass filters (LPFs), and multiorder-bandpass filters (BPFs) are proposed. The width of the LPF signal traces consistently follow Fourier truncated series, and the thickness of the substrate as well. By studying different lengths and other physical constraints, the design meets predefined electrical requirements. Moreover, superformula is used in split ring resonators (SRRs) designs to obtain a BPF response and significant structural compactness. Non-uniform transmission lines, as well as superformula equations, are programmed in MATLAB, which is also used for analytical validations. Traces are drawn in AutoCAD. The substrate of LPF is constructed in Pro/e. Finally, the optimized layouts are imported to Ansys High Frequency Structure Simulation (HFSS) software for simulation and verification. Nonuniform LPFs are optimized over a range of 0-6 GHz with cutoff frequency 3.5 GHz. Superformula implemented multiorder-BPFs are optimized with cutoff frequency of 1.1 GHz.
