For a ladder filter, it is generally used to increase the order of the filter or the capacitance ratio of the parallel arm resonator to the series arm resonator in order to increase the out-of-band rejection level of the filter for a specific frequency band, but this leads to an increase in the size of the filter or an increase in the passband insertion loss, which affects the transmission quality of the wireless communication system.
In addition, when the duplexer composed of the filters is operated, the transmitting-side filter and the receiving-side filter need to have a high level of isolation, otherwise, signal leakage can occur, and the wireless communication system is affected. One way to increase the isolation of the transmit and receive filters is to increase the level of out-of-band rejection in the transmit or receive frequency bands.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the application.
As shown in fig. 1, in an embodiment, the filter 10 includes a series-arm resonator 1, a parallel-arm resonator 2, and a first resonator 3. The series-arm resonator 1 is connected between an input terminal 4 and an output terminal 5; one end of the parallel arm resonator 2 is connected to the series arm resonator 1, and the other end of the parallel arm resonator 2 is connected to the ground terminal 6; the series-arm resonator 1 includes a second resonator 1a, and the first resonator 3 is connected in parallel with the second resonator 1 a. The input terminal 4 is an input terminal of the filter 10, the output terminal 5 is an output terminal of the filter 10, and the ground terminal 6 is a ground terminal of the filter 10. In addition, the connection between the series arm resonator 1 and the input terminal 4 means that they are electrically connected, the connection between the series arm resonator 1 and the output terminal 5 means that they are electrically connected, the connection between the parallel arm resonator 2 and the series arm resonator 1 means that they are electrically connected, and the connection between the parallel arm resonator 2 and the ground terminal 6 means that they are electrically connected; the connection between the first resonator 3 and the second resonator 1a means that both are electrically connected.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the number of the series-arm resonators 1 and the number of the parallel-arm resonators 2 are plural, each parallel-arm resonator 2 is connected between two series-arm resonators 1, the other end of each parallel-arm resonator 2 is connected to the ground, and one parallel-arm resonator 2 is usually connected between two adjacent series-arm resonators 1. Wherein "a plurality of" means greater than or equal to two.
Note that fig. 1 shows only one configuration of the filter 10 according to the present embodiment, and the filter 10 according to the present embodiment is not limited to the number and connection of the series-arm resonators 1 and the parallel-arm resonators 2, nor to the configuration shown in fig. 1. For example, in other embodiments, the number of parallel arm resonators 2 may be only one. In other embodiments, the parallel-arm resonator 2 may be connected between the input terminal 4 and the series-arm resonator 1 adjacent to the input terminal 4, and the parallel-arm resonator 2 may be connected between the output terminal 5 and the series-arm resonator 1 adjacent to the output terminal 5.
Specifically, referring to fig. 12, when the number of parallel-arm resonators 2 is plural, some parallel-arm resonators 2 may be connected between adjacent two series-arm resonators 1, some parallel-arm resonators 2 may be connected between the series-arm resonators 1 closest to the input terminal 4 and the adjacent input terminal 4, and some parallel-arm resonators 2 may be connected between the output terminal 5 and the series-arm resonators 1 adjacent to the output terminal 5. Alternatively, referring to fig. 13, when the number of parallel-arm resonators 2 is plural, some parallel-arm resonators 2 may be connected between adjacent two series-arm resonators 1, and other parallel-arm resonators 2 may be connected between the input terminal 4 and the series-arm resonator 1 adjacent to the input terminal 4. Alternatively, referring to fig. 14, when the number of parallel-arm resonators 2 is plural, some parallel-arm resonators 2 may be connected between adjacent two series-arm resonators 1, and other parallel-arm resonators may be connected between the output terminal 5 and the series-arm resonator 1 adjacent to the output terminal 5.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the antiresonant frequency of the first resonator 3 is smaller than the resonant frequency of the parallel arm resonator 2 to generate a transmission zero on the low-frequency stop band outside the pass band of the filter 10, thereby improving the out-band rejection level of the filter 10 on the low-frequency side. The present embodiment can increase the out-of-band rejection level of the filter 10 for a specific frequency band without increasing the order of the filter 10 or the capacitance ratio of the parallel arm resonator 2 to the series arm resonator 1, thereby increasing the out-of-band rejection level for the specific frequency band without affecting the insertion loss and increasing the volume of the filter 10.
As shown in fig. 2, in the figure, the solid line is the signal transmission characteristic curve of the filter 10 of the present embodiment, and the broken line is the signal transmission characteristic curve of the filter of the comparative example, wherein the abscissa in the figure is frequency in HZ, and the ordinate is transmission characteristic in dB. In fig. 2, the range between fa and fb is a pass band, between fa and fc is a low-frequency side transition band, between fb and fd is a high-frequency side transition band, the left side of fc is a low-frequency stop band, and the right side of fd is a high-frequency stop band. In the present embodiment, by setting the antiresonant frequency of the first resonator 3 smaller than the resonant frequency of the parallel arm resonator 2, the transmission zero can be formed on the left side of fc.
In fig. 2, the filter of the comparative example is not provided with the first resonator 3, as compared with the filter 10 of the present embodiment. The present embodiment is equivalent to the filter of this comparative example in that, by connecting the first resonators 3 in parallel to both ends of the corresponding series-arm resonator 1 and setting the antiresonance frequency of the first resonators 3 to be smaller than the resonant frequency of the parallel-arm resonator 2, a transmission zero is formed on the low-frequency stop band outside the passband of the filter, wherein the transmission characteristic at the transmission zero is lowered, so that the out-of-band suppression level can be improved. For example, f in FIG. 2 0 For one transmission zero point shown in the present embodiment, it can be seen from the figure that the arrangement of the present embodiment can reduce f as compared with the comparative example filter 0 Transmission characteristics at that point. It should be understood that f 0 Indicating that a transmission zero is generated at any frequency point on the low-frequency stop band outside the pass band of the filter, the position of the transmission zero is only schematically shown in fig. 2.
Defining the resonant frequency of the series arm resonator 1 as f sr The antiresonant frequency of the series arm resonator 1 is f sa The parallel arm resonator 2 has a resonant frequency f pr The antiresonant frequency of the parallel arm resonator 2 is f pa The first resonator 3 has a resonant frequency f xr The antiresonance frequency of the first resonator 3 is f xa The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the In one possible embodiment, f xr <f xa <f pr <f pa <f sr <f sa . Of course, in guarantee f xa <f pr On the premise of f pr 、f pa 、f sr F sa The size relation may be other settings, and the embodiment is not limited herein.
In an embodiment, when the filter 10 includes a plurality of parallel-arm resonators 2, the antiresonant frequency of the first resonator 3 is smaller than the resonant frequency of any one of the parallel-arm resonators 2. That is, the antiresonant frequency of the first resonator 3 is smaller than the minimum value of the resonant frequency of each parallel-arm resonator 2.
When there are a plurality of first resonators 3, the antiresonant frequency of any one of the first resonators 3 is smaller than the minimum value of the resonant frequency of each of the parallel arm resonators 2.
As shown in fig. 1, in one embodiment, the second resonator 1a is the one adjacent to the input end 4, that is, the second resonator 1a is the one closest to the input end 4 in each series-arm resonator 1. Of course, in other embodiments, the second resonator 1a may also be located at other positions, for example, referring to fig. 3, the second resonator 1a is the resonator adjacent to the output end 5, that is, the second resonator 1a is the resonator closest to the output end 5 in each series-arm resonator 1; alternatively, referring to fig. 4, both ends of the second resonator 1a are provided with respective series-arm resonators 1.
As shown in fig. 5, the mechanical model of a single resonator can be equivalent to a circuit model using MBVD models. Wherein R is s Is the wiring loss (namely the resistance of the wiring) of the resonator, R m Is the dynamic resistance of the resonator, L m Dynamic inductance, C, of resonator m Dynamic capacitance, R, of resonator 0 Is the static resistance of the resonator, C 0 Is the static capacitance of the resonator. When the resonant frequency of the resonator is fixed, the antiresonant frequency of the resonator can be changed by changing the capacitance of the resonator. In the present embodiment, on the basis that the antiresonance frequency of the first resonator 3 is smaller than the resonant frequency of the parallel arm resonator 2, the antiresonance frequency of the first resonator 3 can be adjusted by changing the capacitance of the first resonator 3, so that the position of the transmission zero point generated on the low-frequency stop band outside the passband of the filter 10 can be adjusted to a desired frequency point.
In a possible embodiment, the first target frequency point f is on the low frequency band outside the pass band of the filter 10 1 Static capacitance C of the second resonator 1a 01 Static capacitance C of the first resonator 3 0x Dynamic capacitance C of the first resonator 3 mx Resonant frequency f of the first resonator 3 xr The following relationship is satisfied:
wherein the capacitance parameters of the first resonator 3 include parameters of the static capacitance of the first resonator 3 and parameters of the dynamic capacitance of the first resonator 3. In addition, when the antiresonant frequency of the first resonator 3 is smaller than the resonant frequency of the parallel-arm resonator 2 without changing the existing filter structure, the transmission zero point can be formed at a predetermined frequency point (i.e., a first target frequency point) by adjusting the capacitance parameter of the first resonator 3. That is, on the basis that the antiresonance frequency of the first resonator 3 is smaller than the resonance frequency of the parallel arm resonator, the static capacitance and dynamic capacitance parameters of the first resonator 3 are adjusted so that the above-described relationship is satisfied between the capacitance parameter and resonance frequency of the first resonator 3, the static capacitance of the second resonator 1a, and the frequency point f1 at which the transmission zero point needs to be generated (i.e., the frequency point at which the out-of-band suppression needs to be performed), so that the generation of the transmission zero point at the frequency point can be realized, and the out-of-band suppression level at the frequency point can be improved.
In another possible embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the first resonator 3 comprises at least two sub-resonators 3a connected in parallel with each other, i.e. the first resonator 3 comprises at least two sub-resonators 3a, and each sub-resonator 3a is connected in parallel to both ends of the second resonator 1 a.
Each of the sub-resonators 3a has a resonant frequency and a resonant frequency, the resonant frequency of one first resonator 3 is the equivalent resonant frequency of each sub-resonant frequency 3a included in the first resonator 3, and the anti-resonant frequency of one first resonator 3 is the equivalent anti-resonant frequency of each sub-resonant frequency 3a included in the first resonator 3. The static capacitance of one first resonator 3 is the equivalent static capacitance of each sub-resonator 3a included in the first resonator 3, and the dynamic capacitance of one first resonator 3 is the equivalent dynamic capacitance of each sub-resonator 3a included in the first resonator 3.
In addition, the structural parameters of the sub-resonators 3a included in one first resonator 3 may be the same, or the structural parameters of two sub-resonators 3a in each sub-resonator 3a included in one first resonator 3 may be different. The structural parameters of the two subresonators 3a are different, which means that at least one of the parameters of the resonant frequency, antiresonant frequency, dynamic capacitance, static capacitance, and the like of the two subresonants 3a is different. The same structural parameters of the two subresonators 3a mean that the parameters of the resonant frequency, antiresonant frequency, dynamic capacitance, static capacitance, and the like of the two subresonants 3a are the same.
The sub-resonator 3a may be composed of a plurality of cascaded resonators, for example, the sub-resonator 3a is composed of a plurality of resonators (the resonator is defined as a third resonator) connected in series, or the sub-resonator 3a includes a fourth resonator in addition to the plurality of third resonators connected in series, and the fourth resonator is connected in parallel with at least one third resonator. In this embodiment, the resonance frequency of one sub-resonator 3a is the equivalent resonance frequency of each level resonator included in the sub-resonator 3a, the antiresonance frequency of one sub-resonator 3a is the equivalent antiresonance frequency of each level resonator included in the sub-resonator 3a, the static capacitance of one sub-resonator 3a is the equivalent static capacitance of each level resonator included in the sub-resonator 3a, and the dynamic capacitance of one sub-resonator 3a is the equivalent dynamic capacitance of each level resonator included in the sub-resonator 3 a.
In addition, when the number of the sub-resonators 3a is plural, each of the sub-resonators 3a may be composed of plural cascaded resonators; alternatively, when there are a plurality of sub-resonators 3a, each sub-resonator 3a is not composed of a plurality of cascaded resonators, i.e., each sub-resonator 3a is only an independent resonator; alternatively, when the number of the sub-resonators 3a is plural, a part of each sub-resonator 3a is composed of plural resonators in cascade, and the other part is only one independent resonator.
In a further possible embodiment, the structural parameters of the sub-resonators 3a are identical, a first target frequency point f on the low-frequency band outside the pass band of the filter 10 1 Static capacitance C of the second resonator 1a 01 The number n of the subresonators 3a, n.gtoreq.2, the static capacitance C of the subresonators 3a 1 Equivalent dynamic capacitance C of n subresonators 3a 2 Resonant frequency f of sub-resonator 3a 2 Satisfy therebetween toThe following relationship:
the capacitance parameters of the subresonator 3a include parameters of the static capacitance of the subresonator 3a and parameters of the dynamic capacitance of the subresonator 3 a. Equivalent dynamic capacitance C of n subresonators 3a 2 It is understood that the n sub-resonators 3a are equivalent in parallel to one resonator, which equivalent is the dynamic capacitance of the resonator.
In an embodiment, the number of the first resonators 3 is N, the number of the second resonators 1a is M, and N is less than or equal to M; each first resonator 3 is connected in parallel with at least one second resonator 1 a. This may create N transmission zeroes at the low frequency stop band outside the pass band of the filter 10. Wherein N and M are integers greater than 1. When N is greater than 1, if the structural parameters of the two first resonators 3 are the same, the transmission zeros generated by the two first resonators 3 are coincident; when N is greater than 1, if the structural parameters of the two first resonators 3 are different, the transmission zeros generated by the two first resonators 3 do not coincide (refer to fig. 7, where the abscissa and ordinate parameters in fig. 7 are the same as those in fig. 2). When the structural parameters of the first resonators 3 are identical, the transmission zeros formed by the first resonators 3 are all coincident.
The structural parameters of the two first resonators 3 are the same, which means that the resonant frequency, anti-resonant frequency, dynamic capacitance, static capacitance, and the number of the sub-resonators 3a of the two first resonators 3 are the same. The structural parameters of the two first resonators 3 are different, which means that at least one parameter of the resonant frequency, antiresonance frequency, dynamic capacitance, static capacitance, and the number of the sub-resonators 3a of the two first resonators 3 is different.
For example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 2, the number of first resonators 3 is 1, and in this embodiment, 1 transmission zero may be generated on the low-frequency stop band outside the pass band of the filter 10; in the embodiment shown in fig. 7, the number of first resonators 3 is 2, and the structural parameters of the two first resonators 3 are different, in this embodiment, 2 transmission zeros may be generated on the low-frequency stop band outside the pass band of the filter 10, and the two transmission zeros do not coincide.
In addition, when N is greater than 1, each first resonator 3 may have only one sub-resonator 3a (refer to fig. 8); alternatively, when N is greater than 1, each of the first resonators 3 may be a resonator having at least two subresonators 3a (refer to fig. 9); alternatively, when N is greater than 1, a part of the first resonators 3 has only one sub-resonator 3a, and another part of the first resonators 3 has at least two sub-resonators 3a (refer to fig. 10).
Further, when N is greater than 1, the relationship between the resonance frequency of each first resonator 3 and the capacitance parameter of the first resonator 3, the capacitance parameter of the second resonator 1a connected in parallel with the first resonator 3, and the transmission zero point generated by the first resonator 3 satisfies the formula of the above embodiment.
A first resonator 3 is connected in parallel with at least two second resonators 1a, meaning that the second resonators 1a are connected in series and then connected in parallel with the first resonator 3 as a whole. For example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 11, the first resonator 3 is connected in parallel with two second resonances. When one first resonator 3 is connected in parallel with a plurality of second resonators 1a, the above-mentioned sum f 1 C in the related formula 01 Is the equivalent static capacitance of each second resonator 1a connected in parallel with the first resonator 3.
