AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This new technology uses a special type called a compound filter that can be used more efficiently than traditional filters like inductors or capacitors. It achieves this by combining two different types of components - an electric component made up from coils wires suspended between them while another part consists mostly of iron powder inside it's own core material. By doing these things together, there are no longer any moving parts needed anymore, making the device lighterweight without sacrificing its performance. Additionally, due to their small dimensions, they have improved signal quality compared to previous designs. Overall, this innovative solution simplifies the construction process and improves overall efficiency over existing technologies

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed by this patents relates to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of radio waves used in mobile devices (such as cell phones). Specifically, current methods involve adding extra components like filters to reduce unwanted signals from transmitting over multiple paths simultaneously. However, there may still exist issues where certain frequencies cannot meet desired standards due to their overlap. To address those concerns, new techniques called "Beam Switched Smart Antennas," including butteryphone matrices, waveguide networks, and hybrid circuits, were developed. These improvements aim to improve both high data rate capabilities and minimizing distortion caused by electromagnetic noise.

Abstract

The invention discloses a microstrip line Butler matrix provided with a bandpass filtering characteristic and based on stub-loaded resonators. The microstrip line Butler matrix comprises four stub-loaded resonators, two input end feed line heads, two output end feed line heads and four port feed lines. Each resonator is electrically or magnetically coupled with another two resonators, and a phase shift characteristic is realized by means of the combination of electric coupling and magnetic coupling paths. According to the invention, 3dB couplers are replaced by the stub-loaded resonators, the structure is simple, and the bandpass filtering characteristic is realized; the phase shift characteristic is realized by means of the combination of electric coupling and magnetic coupling paths, a phase shifter is omitted, a relatively good isolation degree is ensured, and the size of the circuit is substantially reduced; in addition, the Butler matrix is of the microstrip structure, the weight is light, the cost is low, the industrial batch production is facilitated, and the Butler matrix has the advantages of simple structure, easy design and low manufacturing cost.
