WVBP-64-WR15+ 개요
A waveguide bandpass filter is a passive RF component that selects a narrow range of frequencies propagating in a hollow metallic waveguide while rejecting signals outside the passband. In the millimeter-wave hierarchy, waveguide BPFs sit alongside cavity filters, microstrip filters, and lumped-element filters; they are the preferred solution above ~26 GHz because waveguide offers lower loss than planar transmission lines and handles higher power than microstrip. WR15 is the EIA-standard rectangular waveguide for V-band (50-75 GHz), with inner dimensions of 3.76 mm x 1.88 mm and UG-385/U flange.
Key features of the WVBP-64-WR15+ include a centered 60.5 GHz passband with sub-dB insertion loss, super-high rejection with fast roll-off (achieved through multi-resonator precision machining), and outstanding return loss matched to the WR15 waveguide impedance. The filter is designed for low-loss millimeter-wave signal chains where planar filters would add unacceptable insertion loss and microstrip filters would radiate. The case style TH2793-1 supports standard waveguide flanges, enabling drop-in assembly into V-band test setups.
Technically, the WVBP-series leverages Virginia Diodes' metrology-grade machining and plating processes to achieve surface finish and dimensional tolerances that minimize passband insertion loss while maximizing out-of-band rejection. Multiple coupled resonator cavities produce the sharp roll-off characteristic, and the precision plating stabilizes performance across the -40 to +85 degree C operating range. Compared with absorptive or planar alternatives, the WVBP-series achieves cleaner passband edges suitable for aerospace and 6G research.
Typical applications include V-band 60 GHz unlicensed wireless backhaul and 5G/6G research testbeds, 60 GHz WiGig (802.11ad/ay) coexistence filtering, automotive 77 GHz radar development hardware, satellite and earth-station uplink/downlink filtering, and millimeter-wave metrology instrumentation. The 59.4-61.6 GHz window overlaps the FCC unlicensed 60 GHz band and is the standard channel for emerging 6G sub-THz experimentation.
When designing with this filter, account for the WR15 flange torque specification and ensure the mating flange surface is clean to maintain return loss. The filter is non-catalog / order-on-request with lead time measured in weeks; verify current availability through Mini-Circuits sales before committing to a production design.

일반적인 애플리케이션
WVBP-64-WR15+ 적합 용도: 6 애플리케이션s: 60 GHz Unlicensed Wireless Backhaul, 5G / 6G Research Testbed Filtering, Automotive Radar Development (77 GHz Adjacent-Band Filtering), Satellite / Earth-Station Uplink-Downlink Filtering, Millimeter-Wave Metrology Instrumentation, IEEE 802.11ad/ay WiGig Coexistence Filtering.
60 GHz Unlicensed Wireless Backhaul
The Mini-Circuits WVBP-64-WR15+ serves 60 GHz unlicensed wireless backhaul links where point-to-point V-band radios carry gigabit Ethernet between rooftops. Its 59.4-61.6 GHz passband covers the FCC 57-64 GHz unlicensed window, and the 0.8-1.5 dB insertion loss preserves link margin over multi-kilometer hops. Placed between the V-band transceiver and the antenna feed horn, the filter suppresses adjacent 5G/6G co-channel interference and out-of-band radar while preserving passband flatness. Compared to a microstrip BPF the waveguide topology avoids substrate loss and unwanted radiation, which would otherwise erode EIRP and adjacent-channel rejection. The TH2793-1 case style mates to standard UG-385/U flanges, allowing fast integration into existing WR15 waveguide runs.

5G / 6G Research Testbed Filtering
In 6G sub-THz research testbeds the WVBP-64-WR15+ provides clean spectral filtering for channel sounding and beamforming experiments at 60 GHz. The 20 to 98 dB stopband rejection isolates the 59.4-61.6 GHz measurement channel from adjacent WiGig channels and harmonic content from upconverting local oscillators. With insertion loss of 0.8-1.5 dB across the passband, the filter preserves noise-figure budget for sensitive V-band receivers used in phased-array characterization. The -40 to +85 C operating range supports both cryogenic-adjacent lab measurements and outdoor chamber trials. Engineers pair the filter with Virginia Diodes extenders and Mini-Circuits V-band amplifiers in testbed racks.

IEEE 802.11ad/ay WiGig Coexistence Filtering
The WVBP-64-WR15+ provides channel-selection filtering for IEEE 802.11ad/ay WiGig devices operating across the 60 GHz unlicensed band. Its 2.2 GHz passband covers four WiGig channels centered on 60.5 GHz, and the 20-98 dB rejection suppresses adjacent-channel interference from neighboring WiGig access points. The sub-1.5 dB insertion loss preserves the multi-gigabit throughput that WiGig is designed to deliver. The WR15 mechanical flange and TH2793-1 case style allow direct integration into V-band RF front-end modules. Compared to planar BPFs, the waveguide topology avoids substrate-mode leakage that could degrade WiGig receiver sensitivity.

설계 노트
The WVBP-64-WR15+ mates via a UG-385/U flange to standard WR15 waveguide runs. Torque the four flange screws to the waveguide manufacturer specification (typically 1.0-1.5 N-m for V-band) in a cross pattern to avoid flange distortion that would raise return loss. Inspect the flange flatness and clean both mating surfaces with isopropyl alcohol before assembly; a single fiber or particle at V-band can degrade return loss by several dB and create passband ripple.
Estimate passband group delay for narrow-pulse V-band systems: at 60.5 GHz the filter's resonator cavities add several ns of group delay near band edges. For WiGig 802.11ad links using 1.76 GHz channel bandwidth, ensure that the filter's passband exceeds the signal bandwidth by at least 20% on each side to limit group-delay distortion that would otherwise raise EVM. For 6G research with wider modulation bandwidths, de-rate the usable bandwidth accordingly.
Do not confuse WR15 with WR12 or WR10 - the mechanical flanges are incompatible and forcing a WR12 flange onto a WR15 filter will destroy the precision-machined surfaces. Mini-Circuits offers the WVBP family across WR28, WR22, WR15, WR12, WR10, and WR8 bands; always confirm the WR suffix matches your waveguide run. Storage in a dry nitrogen-purged enclosure prevents oxidation of the silver-plated flange finish, which would otherwise raise return loss over time.
Estimated: at sustained 1 W CW input power the filter's passband insertion loss of ~1 dB dissipates ~0.8 W as heat in the cavity walls. With the TH2793-1 case's thermal mass, junction/wall temperature rise is modest (<10 C above ambient), but verify in enclosed outdoor housings where ambient may approach the +85 C upper limit. For high-power V-band transmitters (>5 W CW), derate input power or select a larger WVBP variant with bigger thermal mass.
