Abstract:
The channel filter includes at a least one basic bandpass filter centred on the frequency of the channel, in series with two cascade-connected reflective filters whose bandwidths are located either side of the basic bandpass filter encompassing the channels adjacent to the channel. A reflective filter can include a 90° directional coupler combined with a bandpass filter designed to ensure transfer matched to the load impedance of the coupler with the input of the bandpass filter connected to a directional coupler output port, the input of the directive filter being formed by input port of the coupler and the output of the directive filter being formed by a port recovering the bandpass filter reflection coefficient. The invention applies in particular to the implementation of the DVB-T and DVB-H standards aimed at receiving digital television programs from fixed or mobile multistandard terminals such as mobile telephones, PDAs or other multimedia receivers.
