A novel configuration of reconfigurable bandpass filter based on varactor diodes by Mohamed Guermal, Jamal Zbitou, Mostafa Hefnawi, Fouad Aytouna

“…These diodes allow for fine-tuning of the resonant frequencies by dynamically adjusting the capacitance values, which in turn alters the filter's operational frequency band. The ability to reconfigure the filter's response on demand is highly advantageous, particularly in communication systems that need to operate over multiple frequency bands or adapt to varying conditions. …”
