Özet

In this study, a semianalytical method for the design of mutual coupling free multiband matching networks is introduced. A new parametric representation of Brune functions is used for the construction of multiband ladder network topologies without mutual induction. The method involves the use of Fujisawa's constraints for low pass ladders having finite transmission zeros, in a parametric representation of driving point impedance function resulting in mutual inductance free Brune sections. The developed parametric representation is incorporated with Real Frequency Techniques to design matching networks with a plurality of pass bands. Several illustrative design examples are presented to validate the method.
