Townsville
Prerequisites: EE2201
39 lectures, 21 tutorials, 18 hours practicals. First semester.
Available to level 3 engineering and science students.
Introduction to filter networks, practical frequency responses, terminations, frequency and impedance scaling and transformation of low-pass types to high-pass, band-pass or band-stop types. Butterworth, Chebyshev, Cauer-Chebyshev and Bessel filter types. Passive and active filters including ladder structures, cascaded biquad sections, active ladder simulation and switched capacitor filters. RF filters: coupled resonator LC, helical, cavity, ceramic and mechanical filters. Phase locked loops and their applications. Frequency synthesis. Transmission lines: Smith Chart, impedance matching, attenuation and distortionless transmission lines.
Learning Objectives:
- analyse and design practical low pass filters incorporating frequency and impedance scaling and using transformation to other filter types;
- analyse and design active filters and switched capacitor filters;
- analyse and design RF filters;
- analyse and design phase locked loops;
- understand the operation of transmission lines and waveguides. Learn matching and analysis techniques.
Assessment by examination (50%-70%); on-course assessment (30%-50%).
