TECHNOLOGYAir cavityCeramic resonatorsLumped element ( discrete)WaveguideCENTRE FREQUENCY (FO)This frequency is defined as the average frequency of the 3dB bandwidthCUT OFF FREQUENCY3dB rejection frequency ( Low Pas and High Pass filter only)BANDWIDTHThe width of the passband is referenced to the minimum insertion loss point in thepass band. (3dB bandwidth for example)RIPPLEThe difference in peaks and valleys of the amplitude response in the passband thatare always the sameINSERTION LOSSThe loss of the filter measured at center frequencyINSERTION LOSS IN BANDWIDTHThe loss of the filter measured in bandwidthINSERTION LOSS VARIATION IN BANDWIDTHThe difference between maximum and minimum value of the amplitude responsein the pass bandRETURN LOSSReturn Loss (dB) is defined as a ratio of the incoming signal to the same reflected signalVSWRRatio of the incident signal compared to the reflected signal in a transmission lineMAXIMUM PEAK POWERThe peak power is much greater than the average powerINPUT IMPEDANCEThe impedance measured at the input terminal of a filter when the output isproperly terminated. Not applicable for waveguide filters without connectors.OUTPUT IMPEDANCEThe impedance measured at the output terminal of a filter when the input isproperly terminated.
