STTR Phase II: Universal Wireless Channel Selection Filter for Enhanced Access to RF Spectrum

这个小型企业技术转移研究（STTR）第二阶段项目将扩展线性干扰延迟效应滤波器的基础科学，使超宽带可调谐RF滤波器适用于所有类型的RF接收器和仪器。它还将扩展实现集成电路等滤波器的工程科学。此外，它的失真滤波特性将使宽带和带内干扰的信号不可知、自适应消除成为可能，用于抗干扰应用，并提高消费者的信号质量。更广泛的影响/商业潜力是，它将通过连续调谐最大化频谱效率，帮助实现扩大RF频谱使用的国家目标。其次，它降低了滤波器成本和空间需求，同时通过消除日益复杂的滤波器组来提高可靠性。这将为消费者带来更小、更便宜、更可靠的手机，这将有助于推动行业增长。第三，该项目的结果将提供与商业单位相媲美的智能手机GPS精度，并能够保护依赖GPS的基础设施免受无意或故意的破坏。第四，它将通过急救人员、国土安全部和军方使用的无人机实现精确、抗干扰的GPS导航，帮助防止将人们置于危险之中的坠机事故。

This Small Business Technology Transfer Research (STTR) Phase II project will extend the basic science of linear interference delay effect filters, enabling ultra-wideband tunable RF filters for all types of RF receivers and instrumentation. It will also extend the engineering science of implementing such filters as integrated circuits. And, its distortion filtering aspect will enable enable signal agnostic,adaptive cancellation of wideband, and in-band, interference, for anti-jamming applications as well as to enhance signal quality for the consumer.The broader impact/commercial potential is that it will help achieve the national goal of expanding access to RF spectrum by maximizingspectral efficiency with its continuous tuning. Second, it reduces filter cost and space requirements while increasing reliability by eliminating increasingly complex filter banks. This will result in smaller, cheaper and more dependable phones for consumers, which will help drive industry growth. Third, the results of this project will deliver Smartphone GPS accuracy rivaling commercial units, as well as enabling protection of GPS-dependent infrastructure against inadvertent or intentional disruption. Fourth, it will enable precise, jamming resistant GPS navigation by aerial drones used by first responders, homeland security and the military, helping prevent crashes that place people at risk.
