Quantum-inspired reconfigurable UWB bandpass filter with adaptive triple-notch suppression for cognitive radio networks
摘要
This paper presents a novel cognitive reconfigurable ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter (BPF) featuring quantum-inspired adaptive multi-notch suppression capabilities utilizing hybrid split-ring resonator (SRR) and defected microstrip structure (DMS) resonators, specifically designed for sixth-generation (6G) heterogeneous network applications. The proposed architecture integrates cognitive sensing mechanisms with quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithms to dynamically reconfigure notch frequencies in real-time, enabling intelligent interference mitigation across multiple wireless standards coexisting within the 3.1–10.6 GHz UWB spectrum. The hybrid SRR-DMS topology achieves superior performance metrics including fractional bandwidth (FBW) of 112.3%, insertion loss below 0.65 dB, and return loss exceeding 18 dB across the passband. The quantum-inspired optimization framework enables adaptive generation of triple-notch bands at 5.2 GHz (WLAN), 5.8 GHz (WLAN/WiMAX), and 7.5 GHz (satellite downlink) with notch depths greater than 35 dB and notch bandwidth tunability ranging from 200 MHz to 800 MHz. The cognitive engine employs a deep reinforcement learning-enhanced spectrum sensing module achieving 98.7% detection probability at -15 dB signal-to-noise ratio. Simulation results demonstrate excellent agreement with theoretical predictions, confirming the filter’s suitability for cognitive radio-based 6G heterogeneous networks requiring dynamic spectrum access and interference management.
