“…From a practical point of view, according to the experimental results reported by Pi et al , we can draw the following conclusions: Тhe RF/microwave memristor behaves as а lumped linear element over the band of interest. Consequently, the memristor does not introduce unwanted frequency components. The maximum input RF signal power should under no circumstances exceed the memristor power rating and power‐handling capability.…”

“…In order to analyze microwave circuits containing memristors, we have to use electrical models of memristors, which are appropriate for the targeted circuit analysis, such as the RF/microwave memristor model proposed by Pi et al [6,7]. RF/microwave circuit simulators, which use the HSPICE engine [9] for the time-domain transient simulation, such as NI AWR Microwave Office (MWO) [10], can be used to verify the expected functionality of the considered memristor-based microwave circuits.…”

SUMMARYMemristor-based technology could be utilized to enhance the performance of many radio frequency (RF)/ microwave subsystems, such as filters. In this paper, we propose that memristors can potentially be used as switches for designing a reconfigurable dual-band RF/microwave planar filter. We are motivated to use memristors instead of some traditional microwave components because memristors do not require any bias, and no moving parts are involved. The reconfigurable filter is designed for multi-band receiver application using only one memristor-based switch. Circuit-level simulations are used to investigate memristor-based RF/microwave circuits and study their performance. The memristive RF switch is modeled by a resistor in the ON state and by a capacitor in the OFF state. An RF/microwave circuit simulator, NI AWR Microwave Office, is used to verify the expected functionality of the proposed memristor-based filter.
