About

RF filters are key signal conditioning components in radar and communication systems. They reduce receiver interference from unwanted frequencies, remove harmonics from transmitted signals, and, in the form of diplexers, protect receivers from a transceiver’s own high power transmit signal. There are many types of filter topology, each with their own strengths. In this webinar we’ll explore the various topologies, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to choose between them. We’ll present a tool that automatically identifies the most appropriate filter topology based on desired specifications. Lastly, we’ll present a tried and trusted methodology that leads to rapid prototyping and the supply of rugged, reliable filters for mil/aero and space environments.
