High-temperature superconducting linear phase filter for WCDMA communication system

This paper represents a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) linear phase filter with self-equalization for WCDMA communication system. of the filter have been presented. The principle, equivalent model, theoretical result, coupling matrix, and the simulated result have been presented. The desired filter with 12-pole and 2 cross couplings has a center frequency of 1950 MHz. The measurement results show that the response of practical filters is in good agreement with that of simulated results and theoretical analysis, the group delay variation is less than +/- 10 ns over 75% of the filter bandwidth.
