Abstract
A multi-tune filter system and a control system for operating the multi-tune filter system are described herein. The multi-tune filter system is a tunable frequency range filter. Further, the multi-tune filter system is a digitally programmable filter with an adjustable passband between first and second customizable frequency bounds f1, f2.
Claims20
A multi-tune filter system, comprising:
- first and second frequency bounds;
- and
- an adjustable passband with a selectable center frequency,
- wherein the first and second frequency bounds are customizable within a range of 1.5 MHz to 30 Mhz, and
- wherein the first and second frequency bounds of the passband are customizable about the selected center frequency.
2 more elements
A method of controlling a multi-tune filter, comprising:
- selecting a center frequency;
- defining the adjustable passband by determining first and second frequency bounds,
- wherein the first and second frequency bounds and the center frequency are maintained to implement a tuned frequency range filter by controlling a plurality of impedance transformers and a plurality of radio frequency (RF) switches.
A multi-tune filter control system, comprising:
- a first frequency limit at 1.5 MHz and a second frequency limit at 30 MHz;
- first and second frequency bounds selected within a frequency range defined by the first and second frequency limits;
- a center frequency customizable between the first and second frequency bounds;
- an adjustable passband filter implemented between the first and second frequency limits;
- wherein the first and second frequency bounds are customizable to develop a bandwidth of the adjustable passband filter, and
- wherein the bandwidth is customizable around the center frequency.
