SOI RFIC Tunable Filters Improve Phased Array System Performance

For RF applications, such as communications and radar, active phased array antennas provide an efficient way to steer and direct the radiated RF energy to achieve the desired effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) on transmit and the gain over noise temperature (G/T) on receive, which are required for either operating a mobile communications link or detecting mobile targets…


Otava’s Tunable Filter Solutions for RF Sampling Architectures

February, 2022

Otava Inc. has recently released a family of compact and very linear band-pass tunable filters, addressing various filtering needs from 2.5 GHz up to 40 GHz. With their high-power handling capability (up to 1 Watts rms) as well as high linearity (IIP3 ~ +45dBm), these filters may be used almost anywhere in RF signal chains, enabling cost effective multi-band radio designs. This paper highlights the benefits of the OTFL101 tunable filter within a direct-RF transmitter chain built around a wideband RF-sampling DAC…
