Abstract

Abstract:

A new optimization method is proposed to realize the synthesis of duplexers. The traditional optimization method takes all the variables of the duplexer into account, resulting in too many variables to be optimized when the order of the duplexer is too high, so it is not easy to fall into the local solution. In order to solve this problem, a new optimization strategy is proposed in this paper, that is, two-channel filters are optimized separately, which can reduce the number of optimization variables and greatly reduce the probability of results falling into local solutions. The optimization method combines the self-adaptive differential evolution algorithm (SADE) with the Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm to get a global solution more easily and accelerate the optimization speed. To verify its practical value, we design a 5G duplexer based on the proposed method. The duplexer has a large external coupling, and how to achieve a feed structure with a large coupling bandwidth at the source is also discussed. The experimental results show that the proposed optimization method can realize the synthesis of higher- order duplexers compared with the traditional methods.

Key words: optimization, self-adaptive differential evolution algorithm, LM optimization algorithm, filter synthesis, duplexer
