Abstract:A four-port diplexer consisting of two back-to-back three-port diplexers combined with a 180° phase shifter in one branch is presented. The technique achieves high Tx/Rx isolation with relatively low degree filters. Two experimental diplexers are demonstrated, one with equal Q resonators in all filters and the other with dissimilar Q factors, enabling miniaturization and cost reduction. Measured results of Tx/Rx diplexer devices at 2.13/1.73GHz are presented and 40dB Tx/Rx isolation is achieved with only secon… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
