Frequency Filtering in Telecommunications

  • Piezoelectric filters are used in telecommunication to filter electrical signals. This report deals with the problem of calculating passing and damped frequency intervals for a filter with given geometrical configurations and materials. Only periodic filters, which are widely used in practice, were considered. These filters consist of periodically arranged cells. For a small amount of cells a numerical procedure to visualise the wave propagation in the filter was developed. For a big number of cells another model of the filter was obtained. In this model it is assumed that the filter occupies an infinite domain. This leads to a differential equation, with periodic coefficients, that describes propagation of the wave with a given frequency in the filter. To analyse this equation the Spectral Theory for Periodic Operators had to be employed. Different ways -- analytical and numerical -- to apply the theory were proposed and analysed.
