Abstract
In this work, a concept for the realization of a reconfigurable microwave multiplexer based on a switched delay-line topology is presented. The multiplexing concept is studied by considering a diplexer example. The topology provides two times reduction in the number of filters in comparison to the conventional directional filter approach. The switched delay-line topology enables the lossy and nonlinear switching elements to be used as a part of the coupling elements rather than within the resonators. Therefore, the diplexer potentially allows for a low insertion loss and high linearity. In addition, independent tuning of channels can be achieved.
