This book focuses primarily on RF and microwave tunable filters. It addresses the design methods and validated examples of various types of tunable filters. It provides an in-depth study of several major topics, such as multi-mode filters, bandwidth control, passband control, tunable multiband filters, and bandstop tunable filters. The book's comprehensive and systematic treatment of tunable filter issues is one of its major features and makes it particularly suited for readers interested in designing configurable RF and microwave front-end modules and systems. This book will benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in wireless communication, radar, and related fields.
