A highly efficient 2.4 GHz rectenna is designed using a harmonic rejection bandpass filter. The rectenna is printed on Rogers Duroid 5880 substrate with ${\varepsilon}_r$=2.2 and a thickness of 1.6 mm. The rectenna consists of a microstrip antenna and high order harmonic rejection bandpass filter, microstrip lowpass filter, and Schottky barrier diode (HSMS2820). The use of a $2^{nd}$ and $3^{rd}$ harmonic rejection microstrip bandpass filter in the rectenna results in high conversion efficiency. The proposed rectenna achieves a RF to DC conversion efficiency of 72.17 % when the received RF power is 63.09 mW.

In this paper, we present a novel oscillator (OSC) design. Bandpass filters, which can suppress harmonics, are incorporated into a co-design with an OSC to improve the OSC phase noise and harmonic rejection. The proposed OSC/bandpass filter co-design achieves a phase noise of -130.1 dBc/Hz/600 kHz and harmonic rejection of 37.94 dB and 40.85 dB for the second and third harmonics, respectively, as compared to results achieved by the OSC before co-design of -101.6 dBc/Hz/600 kHz and 21.28 dB and 19.68 dB. Good agreement between the measured and simulated results is achieved.

In this work, open and short stubs that were fabricated on the silicon substrate and for which the periodically arrayed grounded-strip structure (PAGS) was employed were studied along with their basic RF characteristics for an applicability regarding the RF-matching components. The PAGS-employing open and short stubs showed losses that are much lower than that of the conventional stub on the silicon substrate. Concretely, the Q values of the open and short stubs are 9 and 10.2, respectively, while the Q value of the conventional open stub is 2.5. With the use of the PAGS-employing open and short stubs, a highly miniaturized harmonic-rejection filter was also fabricated on the silicon substrate. The filter exhibited a comparatively sound harmonic-suppression characteristic at n × 13 GHz, and its size is 0.1 mm², which is only 7% of the size of the conventional filter on the silicon substrate.

In this paper, a very efficient CAD algorithm is proposedd where rhodes formulae combined with distributed lowpass prototype filter in order to design the corrugated waveguide harmonic rejection filters accurately. The proposed algorithm resolves effectively the problem of proximity effect without any optimiation or iterative design process by using the internally convexed corrugated structure. A 13-section tapered corrugated lowpass filter has been designed by the proposed algorithm and fabricated. The experimental results are in good agreement with the calculated results.

본 논문에서는 마이크로스트립 구조의 고조파 제거 회로를 이용하여 900 MHz 1 W 전력 증폭기 설계에 관하여 연구하였다. 기존의 전력 증폭기들에는 고조파 제거를 위하여 여러 단의 집중 정수 소자를 이용한 필터를 사용함으로써 회로의 크기가 커지고, 사용되는 마이크로스트림 선로의 경우 주파수의 반복적인 특성만을 나타냄으로써, 비선형 회로들의 출력에 존재하는 모든 고조파 성분들을 제거하지 못하는 단점을 개선한 것이다. 설계된 전력 증폭기는 구동 증폭단, 전력 증폭단 그리고 고조파 제거단으로 각각 구성하였고, 에폭시 기판에 하이브리드 형식으로 구현하였다. 구현된 전력 증폭기는 고조파 제거 회로를 부가하지 않았을 경우와 비교해서 24 dBc의 2차 고조파, 30 dBc의 3차 고조파의 감쇄 특성을 보였으며, 전력 증폭기와 안테나 사이의 출력단 필터를 대신할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

A novel microstrip type low-pass filter using thin or thick film resistors is proposed to efficiently eliminate harmonic spurious response in stop-band. The proposed low-pass filter shows the spurious suppression enhancement of 20 dB over a conventional one. The designed low-pass filter could be used as a harmonic rejection filter of a local oscillator for Ku-band satellite payload system.

In this paper, planar harmonic rejection low-pass filter is proposed to effectively suppress spurious response in stop-band. For suppress the unwanted signal such as spurious and harmonics, we presented a new design method controlled the higher order modes. The proposed low-pass filter was shown to suppress the spurious response by more than $20{\sim}40dB$ compared with conventional microstrip low-pass filters. The filter is evaluated by experiment and simulation with good agreement and shown to have attractive properties such as wide stop band range and low insertion loss.

This paper proposes a new control strategy to eliminate the harmonic components of stator current for stand-alone DFIG system feeding non-linear loads. In this method, the LSC operates as an active filter which is controlled by employing a proportional-integral and a resonant controller. And also, the stator current is used as the feedback signal for the compensator instead of the load current, so that the additional current sensor at the load side can be removed. The experiment is verified to validate the effectiveness of the proposed compensating method.

This paper presents a novel simple filter design method based on a parallel short-ended coupled-line structure with capacitive loading for size reduction and ultra-broad rejection of spurious passbands. In addition, the introduction of a cross-coupling capacitor into the miniaturized coupled-line can create a transmission zero at the second harmonic frequency for better frequency selectivity and attenuation level. The aperture compensation technique is also applied to achieve a strong coupling in the coupled-line section. The influence of using the connecting transmission line to cascade two identical one-stage filters is studied for the first time. Specifically, such a two-stage bandpass filter operating at 2.3 GHz with a fractional bandwidth of 10% was designed and realized with low-temperature co-fired ceramic technology for application in base stations that need high power handling capability. It achieved attenuation in excess of -40 dB up to $4f_0$ and low insertion loss of -1.2 dB with the size of 10 mm ${\times}$ 7 mm ${\times}$ 2.2 mm. The measured and simulated results showed good agreement.
