Abstract
This amplifier (10) for radio frequency signals comprises a circuit adapted to amplify the signals within a first range of frequency (19) and is characterized in that said circuit is also adapted to simultaneously attenuate the signals within a second range of frequency (18).
Claims22
Amplifier for radio frequency signals comprising a first stage being connected between the input, a ground and an output and a second stage being connected between the output and a direct voltage source, and wherein said second stage provides a direct current path with a first inductor, the circuit further comprising a first capacitor connected in parallel with said direct current path and a second inductor series-connected with a second capacitor wherein the values of said first and second inductors and of said first and second capacitors are set to have predetermined ratios to amplify the signals within a first range of frequency and simultaneously attenuate the signals within a second range of frequency and wherein each of the couples of inductor and capacitor allows setting of respectively the central attenuation frequency and the central amplification frequency.
Receiver for digital television signals comprising an analog front end and a demodulation unit, characterized in that said analog front end comprises at least one amplifier for radio frequency signals comprising a first stage being connected between the input, a ground and an output and a second stage being connected between the output and a direct voltage source, and wherein said second stage provides a direct current path with a first inductor, the circuit further comprising a first capacitor connected in parallel with said direct current path and a second inductor series-connected with a second capacitor wherein the values of said first and second inductors and of said first and second capacitors are set to have predetermined ratios to amplify the signals within a first range of frequency and simultaneously attenuate the signals within a second range of frequency and wherein each of the couples of inductor and capacitor allows setting of respectively the central attenuation frequency and the central amplification frequency.
