Semester- 5th A
We can get a band-pass filter with a series RLC circuit by measuring the voltage across the
resistor.
An RLC circuit can form a notch filter that only negates a narrow band of frequency. The series
impedance can be calculated and inserted to find the gain.
Creating a Band pass filter in Simulink (Matlab):
We will open Matlab and write “Simulink in the command window and wait for the window to
open. A Simulink library browser will open from which we can make a file to create a circuit and
browse components required and drag them onto the blank white window.
Components:
We will add following components from the library:
• Series RLC branch x3.
• AC voltage source.
• Voltage measurement (voltmeter).
• Scope
• Power GUI
Circuit:
We will make a series circuit with the above mentioned components. The circuit will look like:
Resonant frequency:
The resonant frequency for the voltage source was calculated in Matlab.
Code:
>> L=0.027
L=
0.0270
>> C=0.047*10^-6
C=
4.7000e-008
>> f=1/(2*pi*sqrt(L*C))
f=
4.4678e+003
We will enter the resonant frequency f=4467 in the AC voltage description.
Simulation:
We ran the circuit with this frequency. The scope output was:
Conclusion:
A Band Pass Filter passes signals within a certain “band” or “spread” of frequencies without
distorting the input signal or introducing extra noise. This band of frequencies can be any width
and is commonly known as the filters Bandwidth.
Applications:
Band pass filters are widely used in wireless transmitters and receivers. The main function of
such a filter in a transmitter is to limit the bandwidth of the output signal to the band allocated
for the transmission. This prevents the transmitter from interfering with other stations. In a
receiver, a band pass filter allows signals within a selected range of frequencies to be heard or
decoded, while preventing signals at unwanted frequencies from getting through. Signals at
frequencies outside the band which the receiver is tuned at, can either saturate or damage the
receiver. Additionally they can create unwanted mixing products that fall in band and interfere
with the signal of interest.
