Narrow Band-Pass Filters for Low Frequency Applications


Book Description

Narrow Band-pass filtering techniques have been a challenging task since the inception of audio and telecommunication applications. The challenge involves keeping quality factor, gain and mid-frequency of the filter independent of each other. The critical applications require a design that ensures mid-frequency immune to the circuit component tolerances. It becomes increasingly difficult for low-frequency applications where the shift in few Hz in mid-frequency would cause desired frequencies to fall outside the filter’s bandwidth and go undetected. The selection of right topology of the filter for the best performance is the key to successful design. This book objectively compares the relative performance of none popular narrow band-pass filter topologies. The filter topologies are evaluated using a real-world practical example of designing an extremely narrow band-pass filter. The book provides guidelines for selecting the right topology for the low-frequency narrow band-pass filter.

Recent Technical Developments in Energy-Efficient 5G Mobile Cells


Book Description

This book addresses the true innovation in engineering design that may be promoted by blending together models and methodologies from different disciplines, and, in this book, the target was exactly to follow this approach to deliver a new disruptive architecture to deliver these next-generation mobile small cell technologies. According to this design philosophy, the work within this book resides in the intersection of engineering paradigms that includes “cooperation”, “network coding”, and “smart energy-aware frontends”. These technologies will not only be considered as individual building blocks, but re-engineered according to an inter-design approach resulting in the enabler for energy efficient femtocell-like services on the move. The book aims to narrow the gap between the current networking technologies and the foreseen requirements that are targeted at the future development of the 5G mobile and wireless communications networks in terms of the higher networking capacity, the ability to support more users, the lower cost per bit, the enhanced energy efficiency, and adaptability to new services and devices (for example, smart cities, and the Internet of things (IoT)).

Filter Handbook


Book Description

Filter Handbook: A Practical Design Guide describes the design process as applied to electric wave filter. This handbook is composed of seven chapters that present some methods, which calculators and home computers are made available. After an introduction to the design process, this book goes on describing the basic of low-pass filter design using design techniques, along with the concept of normalization, which enables filter designs for any frequency and impedance level. The succeeding chapters are concerned with the important concept of transformation, whereby most high-pass, band-pass and band-stop filtering requirements can be tracked back to a low-pass specification. These chapters also deal with the design of active low-pass filters using op-amps. A chapter shows that active low-pass filters have high-pass equivalents, obtainable by similar transformation to that described in the passive case. The remaining chapters present the problems in filter construction and some basic programs to assist with the steps in the filter design process. This book is intended primarily to design engineers, technicians, and researchers.
