Abstract

A novel, 900-MHz SAW (surface acoustic wave) microstrip antenna-duplexer designed for use in European mobile radio systems is presented. The duplexer consists of a transmitter SAW filter, two receiver SAW filters, a low-noise receiver amplifier, and a duplexing microstrip circuit. A dual-track filter design using interdigital transducers for track coupling provides low insertion loss (5 dB), small passband ripple (+or-0.5 dB), high stopband rejection (50 dB), and small chip-size (TO-39 package). The filters were fabricated on 36 degrees -rotated YX-LiTaO/sub 3/ substrates with a photolithographic technique. Due to the design of the microstrip duplexer, the selectivity of the front end is enhanced by 15 dB.<>
